Film Review3 Mandela

I have been reading Nelson Mandela's 'A long walk to freedom' for a while- well it is a tome; I have to keep taking breaks so haven't finished it even yet. There were a lot of criticisms of the film - being too long/how do you condense a long book/how do you condense a lifetime/ make this a television series etc; we thought it was excellent as it was and is relatively true to the book as far as I have read.
It does show how  'One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter. It also highlights why de Klerk and Mandela were deserving of the Nobel Peace Prize....
