This is really good to read...I saw the film about a week ago and had not yet read almost anything critical of it (beyond people saying the switch to live documentary footage at the end was a mistake, I completely disagree), and my own reaction was complicated. I was really bothered both by the lack of Palestinian voices and the portrayal of women, but still liked and admired the film. I really appreciate you take on things and the links you've provided, which I'm excited to look at.
