The entire Euroepan society should be ashamed at their practices of violent submission of other groups of people. Thd battle of Algers just makes concret evidence of the importance of a nation to maintain their own indepenance and cultur. This showns another infringement on the African Continent by the Frence, and to see how they will/woild do anything to maintain their illegal power. If anybody reads this review, I would also recommend a book by the French jouralist Henri Aleq, who wa against the French occupation of Algers, and how he, a Frenchman was tortured by his country men.
Great Criterion product with lots of good supplements. Packaging and discs were immaculate considering it is a used set.

THE BATTLE OF ALGIERS TELLS THE PARTIAL STORY F THE FRENCH COLONIALIST OCCUPATION OF ALGERIA AND BY EXTENSION OF THE CAPITAL ALGIERS. THE MOVIE HOLDS UP WELL AFTER ALL THESE YEARS. THE SPECIAL FEATURES ARE NOT TO BE MISSED.

I own a very rare original painting by the screenplay writer & co-producer, Franco Solinas. That is the main reason I purchased this DVD. I found it to be compelling as a docudrama and historical account of the struggle by Algeria for independence from France.

Although expensive, this DVD is full of extra features including a documentary with interviews of the real people and a booklet describing the Algerian War of Independence and the use of torture in counter-insurgency. This, like many documents and histories, should have been studied before the war in Iraq started. Highly recommended for thoughtful movie buffs.
