Description
Technical Specs
A gritty but essential documentary charting social turbulence in late 1960s Chicago.
American Revolution 2
includes footage of the 1968 Democratic Convention protest and riot, a critique of the events by working class African-Americans in Chicago, and attempts by the Black Panther Party to organize poor, southern white youths on the city's north side. Using direct sound, a handheld camera, no script, black-and-white film stock, and natural lighting, the directors' no-frills approach appropriately reflects the raw energy of this upheaval. "A powerful documentary...see this film" (Roger Ebert,
Chicago Sun-Times
).
Mike Gray/Howard Alk---USA---1969---76 mins.
