Battle of Algiers

Gillo Pontecorvo’s Battle of Algiers, though filmed in the late 1950’s, remains one of the most powerful and emotionally stimulating films of the modern age. The realism captured by the director of photography, Marcello Gatti, laid the blueprint for directors and photographers to mold and shape equally great works in years to come. Gatti’s revolutionary use of the hand-held camera was instrumental in creating the simulated eyewitness account. So much so, that the statement “not one foot of newsreel footage was used in its manufacture” was needed so audiences were not confused or misled.
