The Wide Blue Road,
This review is from: The Wide Blue Road (DVD)
Best known for the recently restored "Battle of Algiers", "Road", director Pontecorvo's first feature, remains a stunning achievement. In this lyrical depiction of life's ambiguities, we feel no contempt for Montand's character, though he goes against the greater good by breaking the law: We simply see a man trapped in humble circumstances who breaks the rules to create a better life for his family. "The Wide Blue Road" is made indelible by its rich color cinematography and a nuanced, charismatic performance by Montand, one of the finest of his career.

This review is from: The Wide Blue Road (DVD)
This is a great movie. Beautiful views of the Italian sea and coast. Great acting by Yves Montand and others. A moving story of struggle and solidarity among poor fisherman. An inspiring message about the possibilities of the downtrodden coming together and making a difference in their lives. This is a great political movie that succeeds in moving and informing us without slipping into didactic preaching.
