Sommario/riassunto: | 'Film is Like a Battleground' focuses on the genre that best defined the American director's career: the war film. It draws on previously unexplored archival materials, such as Fuller's Federal Bureau of Investigation files and WWII-era amateur films, to explore the director's lifelong interest in making movies representing war and conflict. |
