    Morgan Freeman is a fantastic actor, his portrayal of Mandela was phenomenal

    Amazing how Mandela never rushes things with Pienaar, greeting him, serving tea, casual chat, in order to feel him out to see whether he is the right man for the job of helping to unite the country. A statesman at every level.

      Actually you missed a key word....rewatch this video and Mandela actually says "OUR nation" and not "A nation"....emphasizing the word OUR, to clarify that unity between blacks and whites must be attained for the country to succeed.

    I have to say - and I'm south African before I get attacked. Matt Damon's accent wasn' too bad, be did a good job and I've heard lots of bad ones. The best one being Nicole Kidman in the Interpreter. Matt did good

    I didn't like the film, but these 2 were amazing. I know quite a few South Africans, and watching Freeman and Damon it's just so easy to forget they are American actors - it's as if they were born to play these roles.

      I'm afraid to count how many times I have watched this movie!! :-) Freeman and Damon gave "masterful" performances and made a true believer out of me!! :-) Even the 'Special Features' shared on the CD are awesome. It was great hearing and seeing the real Francois Pienaar and Chester. :-)

      I hated Freeman's accent. Doesn't sound African but Damon did a good job with the Afrikaner accent, he sounds believable.

      The anthem became official in 1997 when the merged the old anthem used during Apartheid (Die Stem van Suid-Afrika) with the ANC's national anthem (Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika) but both were sung during the Rugby World Cup ☺
