Overview |
Adapted and directed by Peter Brook from the Royal Shakespeare Company’s ‘production-in-progress US’, this long-unseen agitprop drama-doc – shot in London in 1967 and released only briefly in the UK and New York at the height of the Vietnam War – remains both thought-provoking and disturbing. A theatrical and cinematic social comment on US intervention in Vietnam, Brook’s film also reveals a 1960s London where art, theatre and political protest actively collude and where a young Glenda Jackson and RSC icons such as Peggy Ashcroft and Paul Scofield feature prominently on the front line. Multi-layered scenarios staged by Brook combine with newsreel footage, demonstrations, satirical songs and skits to illustrate the intensity of anti-war opinion within London’s artistic and intellectual community. |

Overview |
Trois jeunes Anglais, horrifiés par la photo d’un enfant vietnamien blessé, essaient de comprendre la spirale de la violence dans cette guerre et de surmonter leur sentiment d’impuissance. Avec des acteurs de la Royal Shakespeare Company, à travers chansons, témoignages et manifestations publiques, Peter Brook explore le rapport entre la guerre du Vietnam et la jeunesse protestataire de Londres nourrie de contre-culture pop. Entre fiction et documentaire, un regard original et ironique sur l'époque, toujours d'actualité sur les questions d'engagement et sur notre rapport moral aux images de la guerre. |
