Anyone see "Day Night Day Night"?
Wow, that was one intense movie. Here's the Netflix description:
A 19-year-old girl prepares to become a suicide bomber in Times Square. Inspired in part by a story in a Russian newspaper and playing off cinematic depictions of Joan of Arc, the film transpires on the girl's face.

(10,237 posts)...the young actress did a very good job of portraying and conveying the building desperation that this young woman had to be feeling without making her a sympathetic person. Also,...SPOILER...I'm glad she didn't do it. I think that quite likely, her terrorist handlers would catch up to her evntually and kill her. What do you think?
