I was there in Munich at the attack to watch the 1972 Olympic Games so I followed everything about it and suffered even some damage because some events to which I have tickets were postponed and i couldn't stay later and had to sell those tickets and go off. This was the attack of a Palestinian terrorist group to Israeli athletes, kidnapping them and started a hostage crisis with some dramatic events including the murder of the athletes during the police action against the terrorists. The movie tells the story of the ABC sports crew that was there to cover the Games and changed to cover the hostage crisis with some rivalry with other news agencies. This was very interesting to follow.
Full of humour and full of excellent music by Bob Dylan and others but mainly the great Bob Dylan's music. This movie is a part of Bob Dylan's biography from his former non acquaintance to his final glorious career. However his career had also several obstacles he had to fight. This movie tells about the several relationships he had, good ones and bad ones. The main good one was with his friend Guthrie. We can also see the romantic relationhips he had with Sylvie Russo and Joan Baez although however at a certain time Baez criticizes Dylan's ego. Perhaps his most important proffessional relationhhip is with Russo but it had ups and downs. His greatest success was at the Newport Folk Festival although wih some opposition from some audience. A brilliant movie worth to be seen.
This movie tries to show us how dogs are better than men. It tells a story of Douglas from his chilhood when he was violently abused by his father and closed in some kind of jail with his dogs till as already adult he tells his whole life atory to a psychiatrist lady that it goes from his childhood to the dramatic time of his getting envolved in a murder case that puts him to jail. He loves his dogs like if they were his children through a life time of several problems including sentimental ones. Through this movie the dogs behave almost like people to shpw us how much better they are than men. All with excellent images, acting and dialogues.
