2007-10-01 19:24:00
Ladri di biciclette [The Bicycle Thief], directed by Vittorio de Sica, Italy 1948 — Shot soon after the Second World War, this film deals with the material and moral dilemmas that a man faces in a city racked by unemployment. Beautiful and heartbreaking. You might relate this film to the development of the welfare state. I'm all right Jack, directed by John Boulting (Great Britain 1959) — A period comedy with Peter Sellers that pokes fun at trade unions and industrialists in Britain. This film also relates to the welfare state. Le petit soldat [The Little Soldier], directed by Jean-Luc Godard (France 1960) — French New Wave film about the Algerian War, but it takes place in Europe, mainly Switzerland. Portrays a mix of alienation, espionage, counter-espionage, terrorism, and torture. La Battaglia di Algeri [The Battle of Algiers], directed by Gillo Pontecorvo (Italy 1966) — French and Arabic with English subtitles. Dramatization of the first year of t...

We knew he was wounded as he had only a few teeth in his mouth and had limited mobility in his right arm. But he kept his pain and discomfort quiet for so long, his injuries almost became rumors. It was especially uncomfortable for my father during the holidays. My uncles would arrive at our home and inevitably bring up their own experiences in World War II which consisted of peace time occupation duties in Europe. The way they acted though, talking as they did about those ?damn Nazis?, you?d think they won the war themselves. As dad was quick to point out when he was especially frustrated with them ?They never saw a shot fired in anger in their lives.? When I said dad never spoke about the war, I meant he didn?t talk about combat. He often read entire books about the WWII and watched countless documentaries. My mother once said that maybe he was looking for old ...
