Mientras dure la guerra (2019)
Spanish people killing each other for fictions
Interesting plot, superb acting, complex themes, excelente historic research, characters aren' t simple, they are human, accurate and full of life. It is worth every minute. It will not please any side because it portrays both from above. To me it is one of the best films about the Spanish Civil War and about any because it dives in the heart of darkness of human soul, full of sound and fury, even comedy, signifying nothing... Unamuno is a Greek tragic hero like Priamus... Franco is cunny and ambitious, ideal free, despised by his comrades, he gets rid of them all making an unnecessary long civil war , his staircase to leadership. He has a religious vision on Toledo Catedral . He will become the modern Cid, Spain savior. Millán Astray is wonderfully played like a nazi- falangist don Quixote.
