A must see ...

I have seen this title lurking in the Foreign section at my local hip video store for a long time. Inspired originally to rent it because of the music (same guy who did the music for Zorba the Greek), I learned very fast that although excellent, the music is but part of a much greater piece of work here. The DVD of "Z" has some very insightful extras that further one's appreciation for this film. The film hits you from all sorts of angles. It's relevance to the social political climate of the sixties, its timeless value as a reminder of the abuse of power and it's amazing cast. I did not witness its release first hand nor saw it in 1969 (I was too young to appreciate any film). That being said, allow me to be so bold as to say that this is one of those must see films that any film buff as well as historian of pop culture and politics should be witness to. |
