Manifesto from the Press-Book for La Chinoise<\/em>, August 1967.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fifty years after the October Revolution, the American industry rules cinema the world over. There is nothing much to add to this statement of fact. Except that on our own modest level we too should provoke two or three Vietnams in the bosom of the vast Hollywood-Cinecitt\u00e0-Mosfilm-Pinewood-etc. empire, and, both economically and aesthetically, struggling on two fronts as it were, create cinemas which are national, free, brotherly, comradly and bonded in friendship.<\/p>\n
