The Battle of Algiers [1966]
Jackie and Greg bear witness to the revolution for Gillo Pontecorvo's THE BATTLE OF ALGIERS from 1966. Topics of discussion include the film's influential newsreel style, its use of non-actors, how it retains a neutral point of view, and why history is always doomed to repeat itself.
