(1966, dir. Gillo Pontecorvo, w/ Brahim Haggiag, Jean Martin, Saadi Yacef, Samia Kerbash )
A surprisingly objective account of the Algerian uprising against French rule that led to declaration of independence in 1962. Apparently used as a training movie for the US military for its authentic portrayal of guerilla warfare tactics. Features an excellent score from Ennio Morricone. KW
