And now in perspective,
:32:04
we realise
those were the current events.

:32:07
No kidding, it's true.
:32:10
He made current events.
They were re-enacted, alright.

:32:15
Yet they were the real events.
:32:17
I’d even say
Melies was like Brecht.

:32:20
We mustn't forget that.
:32:22
And why mustn't we?
:32:25
Why mustn't we?
:32:29
So why?
:32:32
Why?
:32:35
Because an analysis
of a specific situation,

:32:40
as Lenin says, is the essential...
:32:43
An analysis?
:32:44
..the soul of Marxism.
:32:45
What's analysis?
:32:48
It's seeing
the inherent contradictions...

:32:51
OK, but why analysis?
:32:53
Because
:32:55
things are complicated
by determining factors.

:33:00
Yes, Marx, Engels, Lenin and Stalin
:33:03

:33:07

Starting from objective reality,
:33:14
not from our subjective desires.
:33:18
Right?
:33:19
OK, exactly.
:33:21
Especially in the news.
:33:23
We must examine
the different aspects,

:33:26
not just one.
:33:30
Enough theory; now a problem.
:33:35
Which one do you want?
:33:39
War.
:33:40
Asia.
:33:41
The war in Asia, Vietnam, then.
:33:45
Who are the actors?
:33:48
The Americans.
:33:49
The Americans...
:33:52
..who've dropped more bombs
on a tiny country

:33:57
than during the World War
and are wrong in their doctrine,
