NON, OR THE VAIN GLORY OF COMMAND
‘NON’, OU A VĂ GLÓRIA DE MANDAR
Portugal/Spain/France, 1990, Manoel de Oliveira
Manoel de Oliveira dissects centuries of Portuguese history—and the shrinking influence of a once-powerful nation—in this handsome, lavish meditation on war, colonialism, and empire. Set mostly among Portuguese soldiers fighting Angolan rebels during the 1970s, this anti-heroic epic flashes back to some of Portugal’s most ignominious military defeats over 18 centuries. Cleveland premiere. New 35mm color print! Portuguese and Spanish with subtitles. 111 min. Special admission $10, Cinematheque members and CIA students & staff $7; no passes, radio winners, or twofers.
