Well it’s been exactly one week since I started my course of Roaccutane and it hasn’t been too bad. I’ve been taking one tablet in the morning and then another in the evening with a glass of milk. I had to invest in lip balm stuff called Blistex because my lips were starting to dry quite badly. I’m getting used to it now but my skin overall is starting to dry up. I had some minor headaches last weekend but they may or may not have been related. Other than that I haven’t had any major side affects.

My dad defined this film as a black version of “Schindler’s List” but I think that description, while paying a certain amount of respect, also undervalues what this film is really about. Set during the Rwandan massacres of little more than 10 years ago, it follows how one man sheltered and saved over one thousand people from the rampaging Hutu rebels. Don Cheadle plays the central character of Paul Rusesabagina, who is the hotel manager at an up market hotel in Kigali. During the course of the film he becomes a hero to those around him and goes through some horrendous terrors while trying to protect those around him. There’s some excellent acting on show and Cheadle was deservedly nominated for an Oscar. Top film.
