The revolution will not be televised – Hugo Chavez

The film’s website, I think, obviously points out the bias in this Irish film, but it is an interesting documentary about the coup and, 48 hours later, the return of Chavez to power in April, 2002.

Africa Addio

Africa Addio is a controversial film shot in 1964 about the process of European decolonization in Africa. An edited version was released in the United States titled Africa Blood and Guts (sounds right), but a more direct translation is “Farewell Africa.” I personally feel that this Italian documentary is just as intriguing and well-shot as that other Italian documentary from the 1960’s, the Battle of Algiers.
