To Die in Madrid (Mourir à Madrid) (1963)

A classic documentary, Mourir à Madrid mixes footage by war correspondents and footage shot by the director in 1960's Francoist Spain to explore the Spanish Civil War. The film alternates between montages featuring indignant, information-packed narration and scenes where the haunting images carry the whole message. Especially powerful are the stories of the International Brigades, the child refugees, the cruel response to the Basque defense, and Miguel de Unamuno's denunciation of General Astray and his followers. Maurice Jarre is responsible for the minimalist, elegiac score.

The film was given an English language narration by John Gielgud (not included here). It went on to be nominated for an Oscar and to win a BAFTA award. Leonard Maltin's Guide gives the film 4 stars.
