IMO, this movie is definitely worth you making an exception to your rule. I went to an afternoon showing and fought tears from the opening credits on, because I knew the story and what was coming. Very well-done, both the missionaries and the tribal people came off as 'real', and not the typical Hollyweird stereotype. I just finished watching the documentary done by the same director, 'Beyond the Gates of Splendor'. Excellent, and gripping -- full of interview with the widows, children and friends of the martyrs and the Wadoni (Auca).
