The reality of revolution

Rating: Null/10 (22 May 2000)

There was a note at the entrance of the cinema stating that the quality of the reel is damaged to some extent, so I didn't expect much and even took an aisle seat, planning to sneak off early. But as I noticed, every viewer stayed till the very end despite the frequent disappearance of subtitles (I don't think everyone there understood French and Italian).
Other users have mentioned enough about the authenticity of the explosion and street battle scenes, which I shall not repeat. I noticed that the music that accompanies those scenes are thrillingly touching as well, and I'm impressed that the soundtrack has been preserved way better than I'd expect.
Kader's quote, "It is hard to start a revolution, even harder to carry it on, and even harder to win it. And what happens after the victory?" brings out the reality of revolution, which certainly applies to almost anywhere and any time. Certainly a lesson to be learnt.
