Para algunos, la guerra de Corea fue un claro ejemplo del imperialismo norteamericano. Para otros, era un valiente esfuerzo por parte de la ONU y los coreanos para anular la expansión del comunismo. Para todos los coreanos, era una tragedia. El país no estaba dividido, sino que fue devastado. La cifra de muertos era astronómica, y la destrucción profunda. Muchos participaron en la asignación de la culpa de la guerra de acuerdo a sus creencias políticas, pero este es un ejercicio inútil. El punto es que la situación de los derechos humanos en Corea del Norte hoy es catastrófica. Kimjongilia es la primera película en que los refugiados de Corea del Norte cuentan sus historias con sus propias palabras. (FILMAFFINITY)

This film documents the coal miners' strike against the Brookside Mine of the Eastover Mining Company in Harlan County, Kentucky in June, 1973. Eastovers refusal to sign a contract (when the miners joined with the United Mine Workers of America) led to the strike, which lasted more than a year and included violent battles between gun-toting company thugs/scabs and the picketing miners and their supportive women-folk. Director Barbara Kopple puts the strike into perspective by giving us some background on the historical plight of the miners and some history of the UMWA.

Emile de Antonio's film decimates Richard Nixon and exposes him as a paranoid, power mad lunatic... de Antonio compiles (via video and film) what amounts to the "best of" one of the worst political figures of the 20th century. Nixon was a shameless self-promoter while trying desperately to convince everyone that he wasn't. Through Alger Hiss and the "Checkers" speech to the character assassination of Helen Gahagan Douglas (among others), there are few stones left unturned.
