Man of Iron

 

Poland 1981, 147 minutes
Dir. Andrzej Wajda
In Polish with English subtitles
Rating: [M]
Genres: Foreign Cinema, Drama

Topics: Politics.

Feat. Jerzy Radziwilowicz, Krystyna Janda, Marian Opania

 

Aroview: Angry sequel to MAN OF MARBLE covers much the same ground with an alcoholic journalist sent to cover the Polish Solidarity strike and to discredit the movements leaders.

Wajda captures the turbulence of the times both poetically and with great immediacy weaving archival footage into the narrative and never straying into didacticism. Real life Solidarity leader Lech Walesa has a small acting role as a wedding guest.

Cannes - Palm D’Or
