1062.0. "Beyond Rangoon" by CNTROL::DGAUTHIER () Tue Apr 16 1996 17:33

    Beyond Rangoon.  I saw it in the video store the other day, noted the
    "Two Thunmbs up" by S&E and rented it.  It was about a young woman's 
    experience in the present day military dictatorship of Burma.  It's
    supposedly based on a true story.  The underlying message to the
    viewing audience was one of informing us what's going on in Burma
    behind the scenes.
    
    The acting was good, the scenery was spectacular and the plot, although
    a bit contrived and exaggerated, was captavating and interesting.  
    
    I really liked it.  ***1/2.

1062.1My two thumbs up!SALEM::PORTERMike Porter, 285-2125, NIO/A19Tue Jun 11 1996 16:155
    I saw this movie in the video store and the store owner recommended it.
    I loved it. A rollercoaster ride almost as intense as SPEED but better
    acting and a better story. I can't recommend it high enough.

    I caught this on one of the movie channels and really enjoyed it. Very
    interesting story, beautiful scenery and pretty well acted. A good
    solid video value.
