i was in the middle of a nostalgia crisis, listening to rino gaetano's songs and looking for those pieces of Italy that usually make me cry, e.g. tv programs like "La superstoria"...
and i somehow ended up in the website of "blob" (a peculiar italian program where pieces of everyday tv are edited together with archive material in a totally dissacrating?? manner) and started looking a random episode from last week
and just for a change there was something about guess?? garbage in campania... and after some politician saying we have to give a strong response, send the army and whatever, they put a scene from "the battle of algiers", the ridiculously solemn one when colonel mathieu arrives in town with the army to treat the rebels...
incidentally, my favourite movie, and never out of date
and while i am thinking about what should be done and what shouldn't, where this thin line lies, and yet i don't know and obviously can't come out with any answer, i realised the best idea is just to put here a piece of that great movie and suggest it to whomever has not watched it already (i have a copy on dvd btw)
