There are still so many of his films I haven't seen, but Kanał must surely rank as one of his best.Michal Karskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14485336940590433312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8471082069031980581.post-59570764366996230332016-10-11T04:02:53.276-04:002016-10-11T04:02:53.276-04:00I like Wajda's movies.

That movie includes a scene in which Polish cavalry charged a German panzer unit.<br />Makes me think about how powerful was communist propaganda if even vehement anti-communist fell for it.

One of these was KANAL, which hinted at the fact of the Soviet betrayal of the Warsaw Uprising. Because KANAL was filmed when Poland was ruled by the Soviet-imposed Communist puppet government, Wajda could only allude to the Soviet betrayal of the Uprising in indirect ways. This included the scene of soldiers and civilians crawling through the sewers and asking, "Where is our deliverance?"<br /><br />To see my review of KANAL, written August 7, 2007, please click on my name in this specific posting.
