Blu-ray Review: Criterion Unleashes Young Fury of ‘La Haine’
Submitted by BrianTT on May 16, 2012 - 3:34pmCHICAGO – With NATO protests about to descend on Chicago, “La Haine” seems to have as much power as it did on its release almost twenty years ago. It is a visceral, draining experience about class struggles, increased diversity in Paris, economic inequality, and unchanneled rage. In other words, it’s a perfect choice for a Criterion Blu-ray upgrade as the Occupy Movement prepares to descend on the Windy City.
