Review of Land and Freedom (1995) by Richard M — 29 Dec 2007
A year before the election of New Labour, Loach's prophetic film uses the Spanish Civil War to explore the Left's conundrum - principle without power or power without principle?
I watched it again recently after 11 years and found it still heart-rendering as a human narrative, and spot on as a parable about the current government's unforgiveble missed opportunities.
