Never Stop Dreaming: The Life and Legacy of Shimon Peres (2018) User Reviews

Insatiable Dreamer

[albertval-69560 · 8/10 · 16 July 2022]

Here was a man larger than life. This recounting of the life and times of one of the greatest Israeli statesmen is timely as lasting peace in the Middle East is elusive.

His contributions to the building of Eretz Israel are immense. He never stopped working for the "new, old land" that he loved so much. He was ambitious but only to advance the cause of peace. If the documentary is an honest narration of his life, he never had real enemies for he sought collaboration with rivals from the other political party --Likud. He listened intently to those who had opposing views. He took defeat gracefully always with the thought that "perhaps the next time, I shall win." He aged gracefully while trying to fulfil his dreams. As he says, his only regret is that he didn't dream more for his country that is at peace with its neighbors.

Informative documentary. Watch it to learn more about the legacy of a peacemaker in that troubled part of our world.

Where's the Blood?

While I can understand that when some people make a documentary of someone's life, they want to paint a positive picture; like the subject person was a lovely human being that could do no wrong. But come on folks; this fella was deeply involved in so many of the human rights abuses and war crimes against the indigenous people of Palestine, that this nauseating spin on his dubious life just doesn't cut it as a serious and believable documentary.

It Begins with a Lie!! Shameful

Erasing the amazing legacy of Yitzchak Rabin's funeral. You completely erased Yitzchak and what his death and funeral achieved.

Shameful - from that moment on you lost me and I live in Israel.

Simon was for too many years against the peace process and had to be dragged into it by Rabin.

Do a documentary on the life legacy and enormity of the Rabin Legacy.

A Bit shameful.

SHOCKED!!

I know that everyone's story deserves to be told. But the story should be true and real in his case the story is a lie.

He and people like him tried to build a whole something "they call it country" by stealing other people country and by trying to erase their history and memories.

They killed millions of kids, women, men and for what?

For just try to save their land and defend it.

His story is build on lies. He helped in killing other people who are innocent, true, and brave enough to stand for their country Palestine.

The Palestinian people who are the ones we should be documenting their lives not the killers.
