The movie isn't that good, the media is talking him up like Angelina is back in town.

I was in Cambodia when this film was released. It was banned for painting Cambodia in a negative light. That didn't mean that you couldn't buy a copy from the DVD shop on Sihanouk Blvd of course, but they weren't openly for sale.
A few old faces in that film

Re: Actor Matt Dillon To Visit Cambodia For Nationwide “City of Ghosts” Screenings
It wasn't a great movie but it is interesting in how it captured the atmosphere of early 90s Cambodia. The first time I visited here I was in FCC and Dillon sat with some women at the table next to me. I left and went to Heart of Darkness and he turned up a couple of minutes later. My friend and myself joked that he was following us. I overheard him talking about visiting here in 1993. The film was the first foreign one made here since the 60s I believe.
Silence, exile, and cunning.
