Additional Information
Gillo Pontecorvo's presents a harrowing, documentary-style depiction of the Algerian's people's struggle to liberate themselves from France between 1954 and 1962. The film creates a stunning illusion of realism by combining actual newsreel footage with staged sequences featuring amateur and professional actors playing characters based on real people (including Saadi Yacef, the one-time leader of the FLN in occupied Algiers). With it's depiction of political torture and violence retaining every bit of the impact they had upon the film's original release, THE BATTLE FOR ALGIERS was re-released theatrically in 2003 to great acclaim and reevaluation. Winner of 11 International Film awards.
Reviews
Los Angeles Times - [W]hat's most impressive about this 1965 epic of revolution is the realization that its compelling imagery and its powerful insights are so continually relevant that this film isn't back, it's never really left us, Sight And Sound - The film itself remains as powerful as ever, both on a formal level and as political drama, USA Today - [T]he 1965 classic is a revealing look at the mind-set of terrorists that is so relevant to current events that it was screened at the Pentagon, Uncut - A thrilling film, shocking and often unsubtle, it's also an eerily prescient snapshot of 21st-century global politics, Total Film - Its vitality and immediacy are undiminished, The Observer - One of the most remarkable films of all time, Entertainment Weekly - [The film] casts an eerie shadow over a world rocked by the underground politics of fear and rage, Ultimate DVD - As Pontecorvo looks at the impact of war on all those who live through it, it remains desperately relevant today
