Long March

| 31 May 1966 (USA)

In June 1944, a young doctor, Chevalier, under the threat of guns, is forced to treat a wounded man in a camp of resistance fighters (maquisards). He recognizes the man, minister of the Third Republic, called Morel by his companions. Carnot, the chief of the maquisards, is suspicious of a doctor who expressly disapproves of the resistance and wants to have him shot as soon as he has treated Morel. Philippe, who is second in command, intervenes in favor of the Chevalier. Meanwhile, peasants denounce the maquisards to the Nazis and the camp is surrounded by the Germans. The camp is saved thanks to Philippe who takes command of the group. He decides to leave the shelter and they begin the long march through the Cévennes to rally maquisard Napoleon in the Vercors...

Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict

Clarissa Mora The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

Yazmin Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

BOUF The camera work in this film is extraordinary. Shot completely on location in Totalvision ('Scope) in moutainous, rugged terrain in the South of France, a doctor, who neither supports nor opposes the French resistance, is forced to help a band of squabbling resistance fighters, who are trying to ferry a wounded minister (and friend of the Allies) to safety. There is never a clear position on who is right or wrong, and the arguments are all presented with admirable economy. Acting is excellent. Period detail is fairly negligent, as the actors are styled very much of the mid-60s, but the overall picture of muddled idealists, gung-ho bullies, and ordinary French peasants caught in between the lawless partisans and the conquering Nazis is brilliant.
