Guerra, Blanca

Walker - Criterion Collection

A hallucinatory biopic that breaks all cinematic conventions Walker from British director Alex Cox (Repo Man Sid & Nancy) tells the story of nineteenth-century American adventurer William Walker (Ed Harris) who abandoned a series of careers in law politics journalism and medicine to become a soldier of fortune and for several years dictator of Nicaragua. Made with mad abandon and political acuity - and the support of the Sandinista army and government during the Contra war - the film uses this true tale as a satirical attack on American ultrapatriotism and a freewheeling condemnation of "manifest destiny." Featuring a powerful score by Joe Strummer and a performance of intense repressed rage by Harris Walker remains one of Cox's most daring works.System Requirements:Running Time: 94 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: DRAMA/BIOGRAPHY Rating: R UPC: 715515028028 Manufacturer No: CC1740DDVD
