Drum Line of Algiers

After viewing the Film, Battle of Algiers, I have seen the least entertaning film of common recolection. The film was a lost cause when it came at me with black and white and subtitles. Besides the dead technology it just wasn't a fun picture. I can't understand why it got such reviews as "Best Movie I saw All year," and "Astonishing," heres my responce to those reviews. They have only seen one movie that year. In no way could this movie be an all timer or even a good movie you forget about. This movie was unbearable to watch. I did find one review I thought suited well however. "Pulses with energy, as urgent, intense, precient as ever." I'll give the movie the pulse. In no way is it due to any other reason than the simple drum line in between important events. It seems like this class' theme is sweet non diagetic music in movies. Starting with OUTTW when the Harmonica kept playing and now the drumline in BoA.
