	The War Zone
		Yet the War Zone struggles showed that an increasing number of workers were in no mood to simply accept concessions, as many unions had during the 1980s.
		War Zone activists revived many of the weapons of class struggle--from the "work to rule" to international solidarity action--that brain-dead AFL-CIO honchos had long since forgotten.
		First of all, the War Zone struggles--especially the fight at Staley--had a profound impact on labor activists across the U.S. Rank-and-file "Road Warriors" who traveled the country to build solidarity for their struggle were a shining example of how the labor movement could turn itself around.

		The international humanitarian obervers didn't just risk their lives, by "entering the war zone" at a time when most foreign nationals had already left Iraq.

	The War Zone (1999)
		Few people saw The War Zone when it opened in theaters — the subject matter and its graphic portrayal kept all but the most resolute viewers from opening their minds and hearts to its uncompromising depictions of abuse and manipulation.
		Although War Zone is undeniably a "message film" meant to raise awareness about the nature of incest, it is also a rewarding and heartbreaking cinematic experience which never becomes sensational — or worse, titillating.
		Though The War Zone is sometimes extremely difficult to watch, a second viewing with the director's commentary soothes the shock of that initial experience.

	Harvard Gazette: Radcliffe examines role of gender in the 'War Zone'
		She blended her own story with that of Martha Gellhorn, a World War II correspondent for Collier's Weekly who was discriminated against by the Army, by Collier's, and, ultimately, by her husband Ernest Hemingway.
		Women have always been involved in war, speakers said, whether supporting husbands and sons at the front, acting as combatants themselves, suffering atrocities such as systematic rape, mourning the dead, or rebuilding devastated societies in war's aftermath.
		Holleufer said interviews conducted as part of the study revealed that all-encompassing violence affects recovery after the war, as damaged men return to damaged homes and families, and that women are often left to do much of the rebuilding.

		In private, the CSH doctors kept referring to intelligence briefings warning that the Iraqi command was preparing to use sulfur mustard gas, and that the 10th CSH staff had to be ready to treat mass casualties of a gas attack.
		The war had begun while we were across the Atlantic, and Col. Powell's men had been told they were to deploy to Kuwait, from which they'd then move north through Iraq.
		In the end, "Life and Death in the War Zone" presents only part of the story of the 21st CSH, for life at the hospital—which, as I write this in early February 2004, remains fully operational in Iraq—has changed radically.

		The ethics behind whom American combat doctors should treat in a war zone is complicated.
		Alas, "best" in a war zone is a lot different than "best" in the States.
		Rather than military doctors, these ethicists presumably imagine a civilian corps of volunteers untrained in and unprepared for the vicissitudes of the modern war zone and the unique nature of battlefield trauma.

	The War Zone
		The War Zone is also one of the most beautifully made films of the year, nothing less than a triumphant directorial debut for actor Tim Roth, who gets every detail just right.
		Based on a novel by Alexander Stuart, the film is told principally from the point of view of fifteen year old Tom, a quiet, brooding, acne-pocked adolescent played by Freddie Cunliffe with an understated intensity that grows more powerful as the film progresses towards a climax that has the inevitability of Greek tragedy.
		And the concrete bunker perched on a seaside cliff is at ground zero of a war zone for Jessie and Tom, both of them as scarred and full of pain from the battles within as were the mutilated veterans of the conflict that left this structure in its wake.

	The War Zone
		The War Zone is Tim Roth's debut as a director, and it is a superb piece of work dealing with a subject that I doubt would be touched at all by Hollywood.
		I would suppose that the title of the film would have most suspecting this to be a film about war or connected to war in a military sense.
		The War Zone has been generally acclaimed by critics and it is easy to see why.

	SPLICEDwire \| "The War Zone" review (1999)
		In its opening scene "The War Zone," a stormy, explosive drama of terrible family secrets, seems almost tranquil as a deeply sullen teenager named Tom (Freddie Cunliffe) rides his bicycle home through the green and gray, rain-swept and muddy Devonshire countryside.
		"The War Zone" is an excruciatingly raw emotional experience, in part because Tom's becomes frozen in his recoil.
		The movie wraps itself around you as you try not to watch Tom struggling with his overwhelming angst, which becomes more acute after he is subsequently shunned by his sister -- who in turn is locked in a pattern of vehement denial, self-beratement and self-mutilation.

		Against this tense geopolitical backdrop, we spoke to veteran war zone reporter Chris Hedges about the nature of war in general, the Iraq war in particular, and the challenges for those who cover it.
		I mean, most war correspondents are adrenaline junkies, they obviously like risk to a certain extent, and they can tolerate physical hardship.
		War is so repugnant, and so disgusting, awful and disturbing, that if real images of war were ever seen, people probably wouldn’t be able to watch.

	The War Zone
		The second encounter between Jessie and her dad is The War Zone's turning point, and the question it raises is, "Do we need to see this?" On the one hand, showing the act itself, which is essentially rape, clarifies the situation--it puts us in Tom's shoes.
		For all its unquestionable courageousness, The War Zone's ending is cowardly ambiguous.
		Given all the anguish that precedes it, the film's conclusion is tragic for the wrong reasons, though it has startingly little effect on The War Zone's impact.

	Review: The War Zone
		The destruction presented in this film is as graphic and shocking as anything depicted in the most unsparing war movie, except that the victims are not soldiers trained for combat, but children placed in harm's way.
		At a public screening of this movie during the 1999 Toronto International Film Festival, one viewer was so upset that, in the midst of a crucial scene, he rose to his feet and shouted that he couldn't take any more, then headed for the exit, intending to pull the fire alarm.
		The War Zone is a devastating motion picture; it's the kind of movie that stuns an audience so absolutely that they remain paralyzed in their seats through the end credits.

	The War Zone (1999)
		So when The War Zone stumbles on scenes that by virtue of their brutality are physically uncomfortable, they seem unnecessarily graphic.
		One can imagine how effectively The War Zone would work as a play, where you're physically close to the family and can develop an empathy with their situation.
		The difficulty is that for much of the time The War Zone is unwatchable and not only because what's being portrayed is morally horrifying; often the film is just boring, begging you to fill its silent void with unwritten meaning.

		I have spoken with students here from diverse backgrounds and political perspectives, and they all agree that Israel was provoked into war by the brazen kidnappings of its soldiers.

	The War Zone (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The War Zone is similar in dynamics to Roth's acting style, a homely appearance guaranteed to erupt into outrages.
		But when you find yourself rooting for the siblings to commit incest themselves to combat their father's atrocities, you realize the melodrama and pathology have been pitched a little too high.
		In this ambitious look at how the most intimate battles are waged, Roth's The War Zone engages in overkill.

		During a screening of The War Zone at the Toronto Film Festival, a man ran from the theater screaming that he couldn't handle it and attempted to pull the fire alarm; Tim Roth reportedly calmed him down.
		In Tim Roth's The War Zone, voyeuristic confusion is pushed to the limits, not just in audiences, but in the characters as well.
		Based on Alexander Stuart's award-winning novel (he also wrote the script), Roth's directorial debut takes the common theme of incest and complicates the usual knee-jerk melodrama with which the subject is so often treated.
