Medium Cool - cinema review

7 march 2012 

directed by Haskell Wexler
(America, America, dove vai?, 1969, 111 min. - original version with Italian subtitles)
Against the backdrop of the violent disorders that broke out between the Chicago police and pacifists protesting against the Vietnam War in 1968, this film shocked America with the impact of its images - with footage of the barricades and of real-life clashes spliced into the fiction - and with its searing criticism of the cynicism with which television stations present the news.
