The Year of Living Dangerously -- totally outdated, but does provide some background/history - Jun 2012


"My year of Living Dangerously" captures some of the history. - Jan 2012


The Year of Living Dangerously is the only movie I know of that features Jakarta (in the 1960s). I don't think it is available in Indonesia, so you'd have to watch it before arrival. Eat, Pray, Love provides a glimpse of Bali. I'd also suggest checking out the Globe Trekker series and seeing what clips the Travel Channel has about Indonesia. I think they have a couple episodes on Indonesia. - Jul 2011


Any film made by Indonesian filmmaker Nia Dinata. - Jul 2010
