BONUS:
THE BIG QUESTION: both films present violent political protest almost as benign and justified by romantic dreams of social justice. But in our days we call those means simply “terrorism.” Church burnings, mass killings in synagogues and mosques are real and frequent events. Yet, terrorism is also the tactic of national liberation movements and successful revolutions against tyranny and oppression.
Is it possible to draw the line between “legitimate” violent protest, and execrable acts in the name of an ideology?
