Excellent historical film. It's amazing because all the scene are reconstitutions with actors and extras (Algiers city people)filmed with many accuracy as if it was a documentary... the only bad point is about some vehicles which are not in phasis with the story of this battle (1957) Nice pics of Algiers where I lived when I was kid (1967-1970) ... a beautiful city Quai de la Pêcherie Unité d'habitation of LeCorbusier ( immeuble 'L'habitat') as there are many others in the world |

I love buildings of LeCorbusier. This one is debatable, but for example Villa Savoye in Poissy is great. |

sixcyl, this web forum has some recent photos of Algiers you might be interested to see, including the casbah and the waterfront. I think I can recognise some of the streets from the film. http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=387850 |

What nice views of Algiers! thank's very much GH ... I'd love so much to come back again in Algeria to see all these wonderful landscapes that were printed in my memory of teenager |

I like them too... I've seen during my short holydays last Christmas a very interesting exhibition on Le Corbusier at Nantes (west France), and did some pictures of the UH of Rezé (close to Nantes too ) ... esthetically... it's debatable indeed "le Modulor" ... |
