Days of Glory
Days of Glory
(Indigenes)
It takes a fierce and complicated patriotism for a soldier to march off to war in defense of his own colonizer, and such soldiers make for fascinating history. In chronicling the heroism of North Africans who fought for France during World War II, Rachid Bouchareb's stirring Cannes 2006 winner DAYS OF GLORY is an essential wartime drama.
“A damn good war movie.” (New York Times)
“Big budgeted ($16 million) multi-national production downplays its epic scale with a nicely-tuned ensemble that concentrates on personalities rather than battles, highlighting the contribution these men made despite treatment as second-class soldiers.” (Variety)
