Molokai (1999)
A movie about an Island of Lepers and on Fathers attempt to make their lives better.
1 June 2015
Molokai was a good movie. Not outstanding, but still good. It talked very openly about the prosecution and exile of Lepers in that time period. It was an emotional roller-coaster because at first you don't really feel for the lepers, as you have no connection to them. Eventually the more time Father Damien spends with them, the more that the audience starts to sympathise. As the audience is starting to sympathise more and more, then it gets sadder and sadder. Although I don't enjoy watching older movies (even 1999) but the directing in this film was quite forward for 1999 and felt like a modern film with a bad camera. The acting cast was very convincing and you really felt emotionally connected to the characters in it. It was based on a true story and you could really feel the characters come to life.
