| Michael says: “It’s a fascinating subject, to be sure, and the archival news footage and interviews with two of the surviving members of the Symbionese Liberation Army are interesting, yet GUERILLA was lacking in any new information, or even a strong slant in any particular direction to make this doc a true winner. It’s more a compilation of news reports, and should be fairly riveting to anyone who is completely unfamiliar with Patty Hearst’s story. For me, while I didn’t specifically remember the news reports shown, I was old enough to remember what was going on at the time. We’ll never know the truth about Patty… I guess if I want to get a more pointed reflection, I should read her autobiography. 3 cats” |
