Hippies will tell you that there is no such thing as a 'good war'. To them we say "put down the chamber bong and if your camper van can make it to from Nimbin you should join us for Pod Wars at The Cricketers". Like many battles waged worldwide, Pod Wars is rooted in a concept of democracy - DJ democracy.
Event: DJs
Stimulus: Chaos
War might be hell, but it's also totally awesome, right? That's the message embedded in most war movies. François Truffaut even claimed it's impossible to make an anti-war film, as the big screen automatically turns bodies and bullets into fodder for spectacular cinematic ka-boom.
Ari Folman's animated kinda-documentary WALTZ WITH BASHIR makes a convincing case that Truffaut was wrong.
Deep breath. Okay. STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE is a horror film first and documentary second.
Too many documentaries are mediocre films on amazing subjects. But Errol Morris, critical darling of the doco-scene for decades, is a master - and now puts those held responsible for the prisoner abuse at Abu Ghraib under his microscope.
