Pravda (Truth) About #Capitalism #1970 #WorkingClass #Workers +#Film #Quotes #Transcript
Good clips relative to #Capitalist methods and shows similar is happening to us everywhere and anywhere, even 55years after the film was made! Considering it was made showing the past at that time too it's stood well (and so has Capitalism)! So still very valid today, especially the audio.
I really like the basic-cut directing and audio narration - to the point but not style-less.
