It could be that Hollywood has had more time to focus on Darfur. It's been three years vs three months in Rwanda. I don't think Hollywood could have done anything for Rwanda, except make movies about it (no pun intended). I guess spreading awareness to people who don't watch the news accounts for something.
But people knew what was going on, it was in the media. Clinton has said publically that Rwanda is the biggest issue that troubled him when leaving office. He said, All over the world there were people like me sitting in offices who did not fully appreciate the depth and the speed with which you were being engulfed by this unimaginable terror.
