Not the best


Los heroes del sitio de Zaragoza (1905)

Directed by Segundo de Chomon this film is a short historical film. We see three scenes set in the Spanish War of Independence.

Outside of the usual more fantastical films from this director I found this to be rather a bland effort. The plot, such as it is, is no great shakes and unfortunately features history I am not familiar with. If you want to experience what makes Chomon unique as a film maker look elsewhere in his films.

3/5
