Imagine a world where exposing the wrongdoing of government officials and corporations actually leads to them being brought to justice . . . what a beautiful fantasy so unlike our own reality.

People always say that "The Constant Gardener" is about the wrongdoings of pharmaceutical companies and of the governments that turn a blind eye. And about the exploitation of (cheap) third world lives for the benefit of first world profits. Of course it is (also) about that. That is the geopolitical, economic canvas on which the story is painted. But the real beating heart of all this, is a human story. I will always remember "The Constant Gardener" as one of the greatest and saddest love stories I have ever read or seen. It is great as a book and even greater as a film (one of those rare occasions in which the film is better than the already awesome book). Sure, the story involves drug companies and shady tactics and politics and diplomacy (or the lack thereof). But for me it is first and foremost the tragic story of a man who only truly comes to love his wife deeply and totally after she is dead and gone. Justin probes into Theresa's past after her murder, trying to solve a mystery and fearing to find seedy details of betrayal, but instead he comes to admire her more and more for her courage and determination, that become clear to him in a way he never saw while she was alive. Which makes his "suicide by assassins" truly a journey to his spiritual home: the wife that he know loves more than ever before. Incredible movie.

*One of the best movies of 2010 decade*

One of the better movies I have seen in my life, great story.

A great story n the best movie I've watched so far. proud to be AFRICAN

I love this movie! I'm not one who cries, but this scenes does make me tear up.

I keep telling people to run watch this movie after those french doctors suggested a vaccine for COVID-19 should be tested in Africans. I'm like, "Hmmm, where have I heard that before...?"

A great, yet underrated film. Very sad ending, as a decent man trying to uncover the reasons and persons behind his wife's death dies too; they both got in the way of money and power. But the funeral scene is the redemption, as the chief conspirator is outed before all right after his own bullshit, con job of a eulogy. The look on his face at 2:04 is priceless; "Whoops, I'm screwed! Guess I forgot to take care of one loose end".

One of my all time favourites!

One of my favorite movies! A touching sad ending!

Great movie proud of my country kenya 🇰🇪

There was once a guild of gardeners. Not a bad idea! Great film!

4:12 gets me every time

"It's an epistle; non-canonical."

Beautiful film , reminds me of the tragic mistake of HIV leading to Aids theory & how wrong they got it , please look at a Neville Hodgkinson interview

The novel is "The constant gardener", John L´Carre

I bet they didn't want to do it they didn't want to kill him but they were forced to I just hope they buried him next to his wife in the end after that

A case of mistaken identity tragically derails a Muggle effort to kill Voldemort.
