22 July & July 22

Both are out, 22 July is on Netflix, U-July 22 is Norwegian and doesn't seem widely available and the better film by the looks of it
 
It's Greengrass doing the NF version so i've got faith it'll be decent and respectful.

However since having a child last year, I really struggle with this sort of content, I do want to see it though.
 
Watched about half of the Netflix one, I find it an extremely hard watch, and if it's a true indication of how events went down then it's truly horrific.

I'm not sure I agree with making films of these things though.

I understand where you're coming from, however there's a part of me that also sees this as an informative piece that may have passed a lot of people by. Didnt Amy Winehouse die the same time and all the media attention was on her.

A decent piece here with perspective from both movie directors

Just watched 22nd July. A very pertinent movie for today's political climate.

Though when people in GD bang on about Marxists now I'm always going to imagine Anders Brevik gunning down kids.
