    I first watched this when it came out, at a theater while visiting LA. And the most pronounced memory of that experience was the building anxiety of the foghorn filling the room.

    Brilliant editing, and can’t say I’ve seen a documentary presented quite like this one. I watched this not long after reading “The Lumumba Plot” and still learned a lot. Excellent primer for someone wanting to learn more about the Congo, or the intersections of jazz with liberation movements, and so much more.

    Loved the pre-screening primer about art history when I watched this at my local theatre. Where this movie went too far for me was the lack of subtitles — the British can’t keep getting away with this!!
