gritty street guerrilla warfare depicted on both sides. explosions killing innocent civilians are perpetrated by our liberation front but their justification is what about the not shown mass explosions killing innocents in their ethnic village. do those lives lost not feel as important as the French people we see dancing and minding their business one second and blown into pieces the other?

I think what’s somehow more impressive is how this film pulls off having its…
