    quote:
    The untranslatable French title is a play on words suggesting that revolution was in the air but not on the ground. The English title, "A Grin without a Cat", has a similar meaning. Director Chris Marker has given it the subtitle "Scenes from the Third World War 1967-1977".

    Great doc with live footage of the main left politicians and revolutionaries from the Soviet revolution until the end of the 70's. 10 years 3 months ago

    The biggest asset of the consumerism is to offer comfort that even the most Communist ones can't refuse anymore. Buy or revolt.
