    It gives me no pleasure to say that this dumb ass movie was prophetic.

    Read the book, that gets 5 stars.

  • The Battle of Algiers

    The Battle of Algiers

    ★★★★★

    An astonishing movie depicting insurgency and counter-insurgency. Shot in a quasi-documentary style, many of the images within will look shockingly modern.

    If you want to be real fun at parties: pair with Army of Shadows (1969).

    Criterion Movie #2 Great Soundtracks

    An incredible gangster flick with a rogues gallery of British "that" guys.

    Bob Hoskins give an incredible performance. A brutal racist thug trying to keep together the thin veneer of legitimacy that he's created before the bodies start piling up.

    Guy Ritchie took a ton of notes from this one.

    Soundtrack to a Coup d'Etat

    ★★★★★

    A nearly stream of conscious style documentary about the axis of greed, racism and fear mongering that led to the murder of Patrice Lumumba. Set to a constantly shifting jazz score, the move hits like a freight train and doesn't let up until its final moments.
