Last Leftie Film you saw

[MarxSchmarx]

Post here a leftist (or at least politically left-leaning) film you happened to see.

This one is more anti-fa than leftist but it was worth a watch:

It Happened Here directed by Kevin Brownlow.

[Os Cangaceiros]

Punishment Park (I guess...I'm not sure if I would really consider it to be a "leftie film".)

[The Red Next Door]

The Educators.

[fa2991]

The Battle of Chile: Insurrection of the Bourgeoisie

[Aesop]

Inception

[Arlekino]

Frida film is good i realy enjoyed.

[Dimentio]

District 9

Agora also had a pretty progressive message, at least in terms of science vs religion

[Pirate Utopian]

Born In East L.A. was left leaning.

[Jazzhands]

American History X was more antifa than straight left. before that was Reds.

[Catillina]

Battleship Potemkin...and is Inception a leftist movie? Did I miss something?

[x371322]

Harlan County USA. Classic!

[MarxSchmarx]

Inception

Surely you jest. The only thing leftie about that film I found was DiCaprio's uncanny likeness to Lenin.

[Os Cangaceiros]

American History X was more antifa than straight left. before that was Reds.

AHX is more liberal than it is antifa.

I saw Battleship Potemkin the other day.

[ComradeOm]

Highlander II

[Os Cangaceiros]

oh yeah

THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE.

[Magón]

South of the Border.

Agora also had a pretty progressive message, at least in terms of science vs religion

I saw this recently, I didn't take it to be leftist exactly, but its probably the most recent "progressive" one I've watched.

The Baader Meinhof Complex. It was interesting.

[Pawn Power]

Just watched, William Kunstler: Disturbing the Universe. It is quite good.

[Pawn Power]

The Educators.

The film was pure rubbish! :lol:

[Os Cangaceiros]

The Forgotten Faces (short film about the 1956 Hungarian Revolution)

[Angry Young Man]

Bambi

[Nwoye]

Tout Va Bien by Jean Luc Godard. I suppose I would describe it as an account of the social and political climate of France in the early 70's in the shadow of May '68. It opens and ends with a deconstruction of the conventional process of filmmaking (typical Godard) and contains a marvelous scene in a supermarket where a group of students start a riot which eventually devolves into a food-fight with the police.

[Stand Your Ground]

Into the Fire: American Women in the Spanish Civil War

[Buitraker]

Lilja forever

[Fietsketting]

Matewan

[Tavarisch_Mike]

Lilja forever

Its a good one, but disgusting. :(

[777]

Hunger - I think it was directed by Steve McQueen.

It's about the Irish hunger-strikers. An intense film with little dialogue. It's really brutal and shows the extent of British imperialism in Ireland.

[Vanguard1917]

AHX is more liberal than it is antifa.

American History X, while an ok film with some very good acting, was certainly liberal crap in terms of political message: essentially, the police are the good guys and 'life is too short to be angry all the time'.

Probably "Pleasantville" very funny modern and intelligent look at racism, very anti conservative, made in 1999 I think.

To teenagers get transported into the TV set and into a TV show set in the 1950's, and everything is still black and white. The two teens rebelious and curious nature causes other secretly rebelious residents to become "colorful" (ie: red, blue, pink) and this leads to hatred for these colored people: see the analogy?

[Buitraker]

Its a good one, but disgusting. :(

Really?¿

I like very much

[ComradeOm]

...see the analogy?Pretty hard to miss given that the viewer is repeatedly hit over the head with it. Particularly that courtroom scene with its direct reference to To Kill a Mockingbird. Its not exactly subtle (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Anvilicious)

Still a decent film, mind you
