剧情简介
This riveting documentary, "Black Panthers - Huey!", directed by French filmmaker Agnes Varda transports you to the pivotal Free Huey rally held on February 17th, 1968 (Newton's birthday), at Oakland Auditorium in Alameda, California. Newton, the charismatic young college student who, along with Bobby Seale, created the Black Panther Party, had been jailed for allegedly killing a police officer. His arrest--widely believed at the time to be a setup--galvanized Party support throughout the nation and led to a boom in Party membership, bringing a new level of public attention to the Panthers' cause. Over 5,000 people attended the rally, which featured Party leaders and guest speakers including Eldridge Cleaver, Bobby Seale, James Forman, Bob Avakian, Stokely Carmichael, H. Rap Brown and Ron Dellums. Through stark un-editorialized footage, this documentary chronicles the speakers outlining the Party's platform goals, their strategies for freeing Newton from jail and more.
Étonnant de voir comment les idées de Mao ont pu influencer cette année là (1968) les deux côtés de l’Atlantique. Varda se contente cette fois-ci de s’escamoter derrière sa caméra comme une simple enregistreuse et commentatrice最早的少数民族和有色人种平权运动之一。记住历史上这些人为了自由而做出的抗争。瓦尔达捕捉了这个事件,很有政治敏感,有人劝她别去了太暴力。她回答“我没事我法国人”?Huey Newton视毛为偶像,崇尚以暴制暴,武装夺权,所以黑豹党人手一本毛语录。而一位被采访的白人则表现出了对这个运动的陌生或者说是漠然。我很喜欢瓦尔达拍任何东西都从来不judge而只是记录,尽力让后人看到某个时代社会某群人的真实面貌。“Varda and her crew shot the film in 1968 during her time in California while her husband Jacques Demy was in Hollywood working on Model Shop”法国#800。可能是瓦尔达最直接介入政治的几部作品之一(还有[远离越南][向古巴人致敬]等等),但是瓦尔达的焦点在于从黑豹党的政治运动中发现美学诉求及意义,这就比一些政治喊话性质的电影高到不知道哪里去了。黑豹党读红宝书语录也是全球六十年代大势所趋。阿涅斯说的明白,黑豹是不会主动去攻击的动物,但是防守反击却特别厉害。这很能代表黑人的政治诉求而且表明自己的力量。他们人手红宝书,引用毛泽东的名言:“枪杆子里面出政权。” 想想是不是这个道理,对被压迫者来说,直接拿统治阶级在国外的政敌纲领就能用。3.5 多次提到了毛主席和“枪杆子里出政权” 还是蛮惊讶的 没想到竟然漂洋过海能对黑豹党产生影响 不过黑人为自己的地位和自由的抗争 还是让人感动的 be proud of who you really are is not that easy全然隐身的瓦尔达。洪水要靠另一场洪水清洗,Disobedience 自有其意义。We gotta take the power back 的口号,现在也可
