Both sides of terrorism

Rating: Null/10 (10 June 2010)

Battle of Algiers is a story about Algerian war of Independence from French. However, this film little bit different from other war film because Algiers did terrorism and director Gillo Pontecorovo was shown both sides, which are Algerians and French, story. Actually, director Gillo Pontecorvo is not French or Algeria people. He is a Italian; therefore, he could be shown both sides people in a very unruffled manner in the war of Independence film. It could see in this film, how people frustrated, humanize terrorism what they believe, and armies how to find the leader of the movement. In addition, this film was influenced Italian Neorealism. Therefore, the pictures look like documentary style, using amateur actors, and focus people who did not have civil rights.
