Labourers to poison trees on behalf of a local lumber company – the government doesn’t allow healthy trees to be felled! Frankly, I’m not a great fan of Nicolas Cage… but I thought he was excellent in this film. It’s definitely NOT one of those gentle films you might watch on television on a wet Sunday afternoon, but it’s definitely worth seeing! As far as I was concerned, the quality ...
