The Controversy Behind Eastwood’s ‘Invictus’
Director Clint Eastwood’s latest, “Invictus,” opens this weekend. The film shows Nelson Mandela shortly after his release from prison, as a new president working to unite a polarized South Africa by changing the image of the nation’s all-white rugby team. Morgan Freeman and Matt Damon star in the film, but South African actors say they should be playing these major roles set in their country.
