Movies Watched -- The Battle of Algiers (1966)

Added on by C. Maoxian.

In French (mainly) … 121 minute running time so maybe a little bit too long, but I enjoyed this one and will give it a green-go since I’m in a generous mood … ahead of its time, depicting French colonialism in Africa and terrorism, er, revolutionaries, and independence movements … not sure why I liked it so much, but it just held me … it doesn’t sugarcoat anything, including the savagery on both sides. Recommended.
