"AN EYE-OPENING JOURNEY INTO THE DARK HEART OF AN OFT-FORGOTTEN WAR." – FIVE STARS, FILM REVIEW
|
|
Praised during its theatrical release by The Daily Mirror for its "slick action scenes" Florent Emilio Siri's "harrowing" (Empire Magazine) and "horrifically disturbing" (The Independent) war movie, INTIMATE ENEMIES comes to DVD in June as a special two-disc release loaded with extra features that provide an informative and comprehensive look at the making of the film and the real-life background to the story. Inspired by Patrick Rotman's book and subsequent documentary concerning the personal and psychological effects of the 1954-62 Algerian War of Independence on the soldiers involved in the conflict, INTIMATE ENEMIES is an uncompromising and brutally realistic war movie dramatizing the experiences of a platoon of French soldiers fighting the 'fellaghas' of Algeria's National Liberation Front in the country's remote mountain region. |
