	REVIEWS - Salvador (Puig Antich) 2006 a film by Manuel Huerga
		They all cried back in May in Cannes where 'Salvador' was shown in the socially committed "Un certain regard" section, and everybody cried that dark Friday evening in the Príncipe cinema for the premiere of Huerga's film and that of many others, including Puig Antich's sisters.
		Everybody cried because it is a superb, powerful film that narrates the most intense moments of the life and death of a young man who fought against Franco and his henchmen in the same rather clumsy way that many fought the regime whilst as we all know the rest looked the other way.
		A visual power that grows throughout the film and culminates with the death of the main character to the sound of 'Suzanne' by Leonard Cohen; the young man who crosses borders and robs banks whilst you're listening to 'Knocking On Heaven's Doors' by Dylan who in his day was also a rebel.

	"Salvador" and Noriega by John Caldwell
		The film interrupted by the newsbreak is THE GODFATHER II.
		The aesthetic "pose" of the film is its pre-text and pretense.
		While the situation in El Salvador may be confusing, and the social implications of both the movie and recent events threatening, this graphic insemination of the spectacle works to mark, identify, and distance any horror that might reside in the original film.

		Salvador Garcia is the old capitan of the Voladores, and it is at his house that much of the filming took place: the candle-making, the kid's practice, and the dance to the hub.
		During the filming, Lane became friends with Juan and Salvador Garcia, the captains of the Voladores, and when a child was born to Salvador and his wife, Angela, they asked Lane to be the child's godfather and thus their compadre (co-parent).

	Revolutionary film in El Salvador today by Devra Weber

		Salvador is an Oliver Stone film that was made during the climax of the revolution in El Salvador.

		This film is the first full-length documentary film to present the complete picture of the tragic series of events outside Waco, Texas that resulted in the gassing and fiery deaths of 76 men, women, and children in 1993.

	salvador
		'Salvador' is one of Oliver Stone’s earlier efforts it hasn’t gained the recognition of ‘Platoon’, ‘JFK’ or ‘Born on the Fourth of July’ but I think this film is every bit as much ‘up there’ as those aforementioned Stone classics.
		The film's strength is in the character of Boyle (and the acting of Woods, in probably his greatest role), a self-confessed liar, cheat, alcoholic and scum-of-the-earth journalist.
		Films aiming to portray a subject matter as truthfully (and albeit, grimly) as this need a good balance, and a person like Boyle is human enough to achieve that.

	Patricio Guzmán's Salvador Allende: The Personal Painting of a Universal Myth
		She is currently finishing her master's thesis at Paris X-Nanterre on the reception of Chilean cinema by the French critique, focusing on the influence of extra-cinematographic elements (such as political and social context) in the perception of films.
		Salvador Allende is not really, or completely, a “portrait” of Salvador Allende, who represents too big a challenge to be confronted at present.
		In 1970, representing a left-wing coalition known as the Popular Unity, socialist doctor Salvador Allende became the first Marxist president ever to be elected democratically anywhere in the world.

		In a particular scene in the film, Richard Boyle and John Cassidy, another photojournalist are attempting to photograph an attack on a peasant village and a fighter plane guns down Cassidy.
		It should be obvious that the rapists' actions are also oppressive, however the film does not attempt to connect their actions to the brutality of their situation but instead connects it to the inherent savageness of El Salvador.
		However, it is surprising that he considers one of the weaknesses of the film to be its focus on Romero’s life instead of focusing on U.S. involvement in the region.

	DVD Outsider: Salvador DVD review
		But El Salvador is a dangerous, unpredictable place, and Boyle quickly discovers that he is unable to maintain his cheerful cynicism and stay detached from the social upheaval he initially went there to record.
		The political upheaval of an entire country inevitably becomes a backdrop for the story of the political and emotional awakening of an outsider, and the story is almost always seen from his perspective.
		Salvador was the first Oliver Stone film I saw (I caught it in London just a week before Platoon opened and changed Stone's career forever) and remains my favourite, despite some stiff competition.

	People's Weekly World - Progressive cinema by Bill Meyer — Compelling portrait of Allende
		Guzman has dedicated most of his film career to keeping alive not only Salvador Allende’s memory, but the realities of one of the few attempts in history to bring about a socialist revolution via an electoral path.
		Guzman’s films are characterized by an aching nostalgia for his homeland, Allende and the democratic socialist revolution that held so much promise.
		Guzman’s film technique was honed in the early years of the revolution and his forced exile seasoned his longing to return home and pay tribute to the leftists and their dreams for a better society.

	Salvador-Special Edition
		Intro-A powerful film, Salvador was an early Oliver Stone masterpiece, garnering two Academy Award nominations; one for James Woods and one for the screenplay, written by Stone and the subject of the film, Richard Boyle.
		The film chronicles some major news events, including the murder of Archbishop Romero, and the very hard to watch rape-murder of Catholic nuns and workers, which made headlines here in America, and as of now, the killers are still free.
		The film was very educational to me, as I knew little of the conflict before seeing this film.

	Salvador (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Oliver Stone's first overtly political film, SALVADOR is a passionate protest against the savagery unleashed by fascist thugs in El Salvador during the early 1980s with the complicity of the U.S. government.
		Salvador will likely always be a minor masterpiece in Stone's canon of work, but it's a solid, if ultimately narrow, effort.
		Salvador is long and disjointed and tries to tell too many stories...But the heart of the movie is fascinating.

		Featuring John Savage (The Deer Hunter) as an earnest photojournalist, this is a fascinating and riveting depiction of the bloody strife that tore apart a nation and mirrored the disillusionment of the Vietnam era.
		From someone who was born in El Salvador and watched a parent get shot 50+ times from communist lefties, to watch this total lie of a movie is distrubing.
		Just having re-discovered this film on DVD almost 10 years after I saw it for the first time, it was a pleasure to see that after so many years, its quality hasn't degraded in the slightest.
