Movie Haiku:Rarely have I spent a more emotional 89 minutes in a theatre! This documentary film about Vargas (a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist who outed himself as undocumented to prove that many "Dreamers" like him are in fact "Model Americans") proves the thesis that "the personal IS political." Shallow arguments about "Slippery Slopes" are for cowards! NOT YET SEEN BY RICH :-(
