A Civilized People (1999) is a Drama and Comedy film from France in the GoMovies catalog, running 1h 37m. Directed by Randa Chahal Sabbag, it features Jalila Baccar and Tamim Chahal. Viewers rate it 7/10 from 3 votes. Lebanese director Randa Chahal Sabbag spins this bleak war drama about the brutal absurdity of the urban warfare of Beirut during the 1980s. Opening with the shocking image of kittens being blown apart, the film loosely follows the travails of Bernadette (Nada Ghosn),a naïve country girl sent to the city as a maid for a mansion long since abandoned by the owners. There she meets Therese (Renee Dick),a veteran house cleaner who takes her under her wing. One day, while accompanying her friend to the cemetery, she meets a rakish Arab militiaman, and the two fall in love.
