cinej-208	Lonsdale, Sarah	The War that Won't Die: The Spanish Civil War in Cinema	2018	5	.pdf	application/pdf	1292	40	44	David Archibald’s survey of films made about the Spanish Civil War over the past 80 years asks two key questions: how useful is film as a tool for historians when excavating the past, and how do film directors address the challenge of ‘representing the unrepresentable’: the bloody, complex, multi-dimensional aspects of a war the legacy of which is still hotly contested to this day (p. 83). Increasing numbers of films appearing since the relaxation of censorship in the last years of Franco’s rule and the recent unravelling of the ‘pact of forgetting’ (pacto del olvido) imposed during the years of transition from dictatorship to democracy after Franco’s death in 1975 suggest film makers are still responding to the unresolved complexities of the bitter three-year conflict (p. 169).	cache/cinej-208.pdf	txt/cinej-208.txt
