A Third World groin-kicker, eye-gouger, and gorge-riser about an escalatingly bloody rebellion of salt miners. Strong stuff; sheets of dust blowing relentlessly across the screen, Spanish epithets like puerco, cobarde, and hijo de puta popping up throughout the script, Eisensteinian extras in noble poses, Peckinpahian special-effects gore, a passionate score by Greek exile Mikis Theodorakis. Directed in Mexico by Chilean exile Miguel Littin; starring the Italian Gian Maria Volonte. (1977) — Duncan Shepherd
