I think this movie is easily one of all-time Top 10 War films, and I'm not French or Algerian.
Nothing is predictable or black and white here, so realistic and gritty, the locations and actors are very authentic.
The characters pull you into their lives and the dialogue shines through even as subtitles. There are no winners in a war and the films shows it very well, makes you want to find out more about what happened in Algeria in 1960.
