Movie information in first post provided by The Movie Database
The Killing Fields was a great movie. How that Vietnamese reporter got screwed was pretty bad. This is a movie worth watching. Actually it's been so long that i might actually watch it tomorrow after work.
 
It really focused on the brutality of the war. I think it was based on a true story. Its been a long time since I've seen this movie.

What I enjoyed most about the Killing Fields is how it focused more on non military personnel and gave us a glimpse of what happened to the south vietnamese people.
