Just finished watching The Battle of Algiers. What a great film. All through-out the film I couldn't decide which side to root for. I don't believe terrorism is a way to get your message across but then again the people wanted their freedom. In the end, I've read the similiarities between the film and the war in Iraq and while I can agree with some, the major difference is that Iraq has its independence. So that pretty much throws all comparisons out the window. What a fantastic film now onto 2 more discs of extras.

There is some discussion of the movie here

Although the discussion should have occured in movie talk instead of dvd talk.

I loved the film.

Interesting stuff. I was hoping for more replies and to have a discussion. C'est la vie.

You could always go over to the criterion forum and join in there. There is usually some good discussion going on over there.
