| The second film, 'The Free Voice of Labor: The Jewish Anarchists', is much better. The first movie kinda stinks and is full of Libertarians. |

| Iranian films are wonderful, both politically and cinematically. Panahi one of the best, and this might be his best. |

| If only they had 'The Day I Became a Woman'... my favorite Kiarostami flick, and the best choice for this list (though all of his movies are political to some extent). |

| That truly discreet charm. Listen for mention of my favorite fake left guerrilas (and name of Current 93-esque band from the 90's), The Revolutionary Army of the Infant Jesus. |
