Follow the recommendation of a reliable film critic and follow the picture, you can be fortunate to see many outstanding films, such as this Z which Roger Ebert strongly recommends. Unfortunately, while watching this film, I realized sadly that I too had been spoiled by the old gentleman's review. If I don't read the film review, I can probably appreciate how the prosecutor executes justice step by step and synchronizes with the audience; but without the old gentleman's film review, I would miss this good movie.
On IMDB, a fan said that he was deeply impressed after watching the trailer of the film. But unfortunately, at that time in 1969, the Americans supported the new military government of Greece, so it was impossible for this film to enter the American theaters. However, the Oscar gave the film the grand prize, and under pressure from the Oscar, the authorities were forced to approve the film's release.
The bright spot is coming:
According to this person, he went to a movie theater in a small town to buy tickets in the afternoon, and he was the only one in the audience. In the ticket hall, there was a black-clothed man with a temperament that resembled plain clothes. When the spectator bought a ticket to enter the venue, he looked back, and he saw the plainclothes walk to his car, took out a small book, and copied down his license plate number.
Yves Montant was denied an entry visa to the United States after starring in the film. After many efforts, he finally got a 24-hour visa, which allowed him to go to the United States to participate in the award ceremony of his other award-winning film. He participated in a talk show non-stop that night. At the scene, he told the host that his visa was about to expire at midnight, and he was going to catch a plane soon. During this period, the relevant departments have been taking care of him kindly. When the camera rolls around, the audience can see a plainclothes embarrassed disappearing behind the scenes.
Students, this is America in 1969.
And it's just a movie, just a movie. It takes such a deep hatred, so all the grass and trees are soldiers?
And this movie, to me, is not a political thriller. He is a thriller. You see, this is not a thriller: the reporter's manuscript can actually be sent. Their prosecutors actually insist on justice and justice. Their laws actually work. Their courts can actually try soldiers. They have so many truth-telling, unafraid witnesses.
The letter Z has always been monopolized by Zorro, and now it has a new meaning.
Yves Montant resembles Javier from shape to temperament.
