6/10
Great documentary

Warning: Spoilers
As someone who rarely finds much interest in documentaries (particularly in my second language) I found Salvador Allende to be interesting, educational, and well done. The producers did an exceptional job combining perspectives of Chileans and American politicians to provide insight for the audience into the sentiments of people all over the world at Allende's time. I would say—without hesitation—that this movie would be valuable to foreigners who want to learn about the instability and tension that surrounded the reigns of Pinochet and Allende. This movie shows the fear of Americans about Allende's government and the fear of Chileans about Pinochet's government in an undramatized and unglorified manner.
