special

Rating: Null/10 (28 November 2016)

not great . not spectacular. only special. because it is easy to define it in many ways, I hope, the basic virtue is to remember. to be a testimony. realistic. honest. using admirable cinematography, showing a painful, ignored episode from the contemporary history. it is not a film about war, it is far to be an eulogy or basis of a verdict. it is only a simple adaptation of the experiences of a journalist, part of a dramatic change of history, surviving to one of the most terrible political regime of the XX century. and the great good point for the movie is to have the right , wise manner to present this tragic events. the film remains special, after few decades, for the force of message first. for the high humanism. and for the precise science to reflect the spirit of a period.
