FILM: Invictus

There are a couple of directors whose films I look forward to with great enthusiasm. Clint Eastwood is one of them. His new film, Invictus has him teaming up again with Morgan Freeman who plays Nelson Mandela during the 1995 Rugby World Cup in South Africa and Matt Damon as Francois Pienaar, the South African team captain. Eastwood films are never ostentatious. His quiet consideration always results in meticulously simplistic depictions of the complexity of the human condition. I am certain that this one will be no different.
