Review of Blame It on Fidel! (2006) by Paul K — 20 Jul 2012
A proper film. Evokes the period in France post -1968, when Franco was the dictator in Spain and generals ruled in Greece. And Salvador Allende had just been elected president of Chile. All this seen through the eyes of a child, a strong willed girl who wants to be a princess and has some hard lessons to learn about wealth and exploitation.
It's beautifully done, without any of the glossiness of Holywood, and therefore has to be watched patiently and with brain engaged. Time well spent.
