  Leaving no question that he's among the most adroit screen actors of his generation, Don Cheadle gives a platinum-standard performance in "Hotel Rwanda," a devastating, crucial film that should be seen by as wide an audience as possible. Cheadle plays real-life hero Paul Rusesabagina, a hotel manager who sheltered over a thousand Tutsi refugees during their struggle against the Hutu militia in Rwanda when tribal genocide ravaged the African nation in 1994. Paul is an educated, compassionate, upwardly mobile Hutu who cultivated friends in the Rwandan government and military and on the black market. But he's married to a lovely, charming woman from the Tutsi tribe, which puts his family at risk. When a United Nations peacekeeping force won't stop the killing on either side of the conflict, it's up to Paul to save all of the innocents that he can. "Hotel Rwanda" is transfixing and inspiring, with numerous examples of courage under duress. Rather than make Paul a saint, Cheadle creates a complex, flesh-and-blood individual. The rest of the cast, which includes Nick Nolte as a conflicted colonel with the U.N. troops, Joaquin Phoenix as an American journalist and Sophie Okonedo as Paul's devoted wife, is strong and memorable. Terry George, the docudrama's director/co-author, penned the outstanding script for the fervent political film "In the Name of the Father"; he equals that achievement with "Hotel Rwanda."
