the "grand charly" got them and the least is he actually said "long live french algeria" at the end of his speech in two cities. the whole story is a bit too much simplistic, but it is for foreigner or kids si it is good anyway. i would recommend to watch Yves Courriere's La Guerre d'Algerie (Reggane Films, 1982) which is yet unsurpassed (even if it is also incomplete). i'm glad to be part of this country, with its epic history.
