Rendition

Saw Rendition last weekend – another film with a powerful message.

It covers this idea of being held indefinitely without trial, and torture. It's insane to think that the CIA can just kidnap someone like that, and then just make them disappear into thin air just because there's something a little suspicious about them.

There's also an interesting conversation about torture – where the protagonist is told that information obtained by torture has prevented attacks in London and the US, and he replies by asking how many innocent people have been tortured to get that information.

On a totally different note, played the new Radiohead album at Stuffed last night - think the general consensus is that it's pretty good. Especially when you can choose how much you want to pay for it.
