remain there by force must be removed by force.
But this isn't "Outside."
This is the film forum.
"Ch�" is by far the best film of the recent past and is destined to become a classic.
Del Toro has set a benchmark in modern film acting that will not soon be surpassed or equalled.

  Of course, I'd ask you for some link telling of these "murders." In war, if you capture spies, men out of uniform who attack you, or former soldiers of yours that deserted, execution is commonly practiced and condoned by all militaries. Now, guerilla forces face several unusual circumstances. They are tiny groups who themselves face summary execution.
  If you are speaking of executions after the Cuban revolution was won, I'd ask you to study history. It is common to execute those who opposed revolutions. After we defeated the British, "Americans" executed many that had aided and fought for the British. They were considered traitors. Same with the French revolution? When the French captured Indo-Chinese or Algerians that opposed its colonialism and imperialism, did it not torture and summarily execute many?

    But not for me.
    There are filmed documents, how Che, your hero let execute even old men.

Excellent movie. The long running time . . . - townsend 18:00:53 03/21/09 (0)
was probably a put off for most (IIRC, it was over four hours, with a good old-fashion intermission).

At the Magnolia theater (Dallas, TX), the ticket price was an unheard of 15.00, but that seemed reasonable to me, considering that two normal length movies could have been shown in its place.

I enjoyed the first half move than the second half, but this is logical considering the trajectory of the movie. I agree, del Toro was lost in the character . . . fine acting.
