Cambodia. War-torn, beautiful, shattered by revolution. This is the story of one man's determination to tell the truth whatever the cost, and of another man's indomitable will to survive. Both would never forget what they saw, what they felt, what they experienced in THE Killing Fields.

The Killing Fields review by RP
Perhaps one of the best anti-war films
(0) of (0) members found this review helpful.
I saw this at the cinema way back in 1985, and watching it again reinforced the lasting impression that it made on me then and has stayed with me for over 25 years. Beautifully photographed, it is perhaps one of the best anti-war films ever made.
Set in the time of the takeover of Cambodia by the Khmer Rouge under the brutal tyrant Pol Pot, it tells the story of Dith Pran, the guide for a party of journalists who is captured when the capital Phnom Penh falls. It pulls few punches as it shows the brutality with which all are treated - but a special fate awaits Dith Pran as he is sent to a re-education camp in the fields - the 'killing fields' of the title. 5/5 stars.
