Product: La Guerre du feu (1982)
Rating: 5.0
an amazing concept for a film !
I saw this film many years ago in a cinema that was almost empty: I have never seen it in a video store or broadcast on terrestial or cable tv which is incredible in view of its academy award.The film portrays what it must have been like for man to cope with the loss of fire which had only been discovered accidentally.It is at times terrifying yet it is also touching and even humorous,for example the scene where the intrepid cavemen shelter up a tree from the sabre tooth tiger. It is beautifully photographed and really should be deemed as a classic - it is time for the rehabilitation of this unique film.
