    After watching it, The Third Cinema's movies are really too long... The first half is unremarkable, and the reversal at the back is unexpected, no, but it is reasonable. Capitalism burns mountains and kills people with peace of mind. Even if the protagonist has a relationship with Jose, he is not really a friend. The drama of betrayal and then trying to save after taking advantage of it is too real. In fact, the protagonist stated from the beginning that he wanted the rebels to become...

    Simple and powerful story, but not well-known, it can be regarded as a pearl of film history. As the spokesman for the colonists, Brando directed a coup d’etat and suppressed another coup d’état. After his arrest, Dolores, a revolutionary he raised, said to the black soldiers escorting him: “If they let me live. That means it's good for them, and if it's good for them to be alive, then it's better for me to die." A stark critique of colonialism. The paragraph "Abolicao" written by Morricone for...

    Probably because of the way of a drama film, it is not as shocking as the battle of Algeria, but the reflection on colonization and the so-called Western civilization is still very good~ and look at the Middle East now, in a sense it is under the sun again Nothing new~ Also, imdb said, this film was forced to change the colonists from Spain to Portugal...and the prototype of sir willian is an American businessman...and, at the end, this film was cut in desperation by the filmmaker......

Burn! quotes

  • José Dolores: It is not true that fire destroys everything. A little life always remains. Yet in the end, a blade of grass. So, how come the white invaders win? How come they win in the end? Someone of us will always remain. Still others will be born later. And others, too, will begin to understand. In the end, you also will understand. And the whites, in the end, will be maddened by you. Madder than a white beast becomes when he finds he's closed in and the mad beast'll run for the last time, pursued and hunted all over the island, till he falls into one of the great fires that he himself has made. And the groans from this dying beast will become our first cry of freedom. One that will be heard far, far beyond this island.

  • Sir William Walker: Now, listen to me, you black ape! Listen to me. It wasn't I that invented this war. And furthermore, in this case, I didn't even start it. I arrived here and you were already butchering one another.
