Blood Diamonds

I've been doing some diamond shopping lately. Strictly educational, of course.

In the last few months, I've watched Blood Diamond, The Last King of Scotland, and Lord of War. This would be a good trilogy to take in if you wanted to learn a bit about conflict diamonds or just throw caution to the wind and embrace total despair.

I'd rate the conflict trilogy in this order:

1. Lord of War
2. Blood Diamond
3. The Last King of Scotland

Now that I think about it, we really did see a lot of depressing films in that period. Throw in Children of Men and it's a miracle we didn't kill ourselves, let alone doing something as optimistic as getting married.
