I am not sure why so many people feel it necessary to have this "romance" with 
Maoism and their cult of violence.  It would seem to have little to do with 
classic Marxism in any of the major tendencies--certainly not Marx or Engels . 
. . Moreover, haven't there been enough copies of Lenin's Left-Wing Communism 
read.
 
just my thought,
Bill Pelz

Michael Parenti 
Great film. I wrote about it in my book Make-Believe Media. a film still
relevant almost 60 yrs after being released--with a whole story about
the struggle to get it produced and distributed. I regret I cannot be at
the filming.
