Screening: _BURN!_ (Dir. Gillo Pontecorvo, 1969)
William Walker (played by Marlon Brando), a British agent provocateur, arrives at the Caribbean island of Queimada -- a lucrative sugar-producing colony of Portugal (so named after the island was burned down to quell a slave revolt) -- to incite a nationalist revolution, only to have England replace Portugal as new neo-colonial master. Used and betrayed by Walker, former slaves, led by Jose Dolores, rise up against the comprador regime installed by the British. Queimada will burnŠagain.
