Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy.\u201d He could easily have been describing the premise of Jean-Pierre Melville\u2019s 1969 suspense-drama about French resistance fighters living in Nazi-occupied Lyon.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Lino Ventura stars as Philippe Gerbier, a leader of a resistance cell who narrowly escapes from a concentration camp before resuming his operation to frustrate and overcome the occupation. Buoyed by success as belayed setbacks, Gerbier and his fast-made compatriots sacrifice everything in their fight to free themselves from the yoke of Nazi oppression.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Melville\u2019s film is a bleak, unglamorous depiction of the mortal and moral costs of resistance, as Gerbier\u2019s compatriots are either outed as Nazi conspirators and subsequently executed or lose their lives in service of liberating France from its occupiers.

One of my favorite films is <em>The Battle of Algiers<\/em>, and I was like, \u2018There\u2019s something about your writing that feels similar to that.\u2019 And he was like, \u2018Yeah, that\u2019s it! I\u2019ve gotta go back and watch that.\u2019 And so we just jammed about how great that film is and how much of that flavor and texture we could get from it. So that became a big reference point for the [season 1] finale where the locals rise up against the Empire.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Released in 1966, just four years following the conclusion of the Algerian War, <em>The Battle of Algiers<\/em> centers on two protagonists: Ali La Pointe, the Algerian freedom fighter who led an uprising between 1954 and 1957, and Lt. Col. Mathieu, the French paratrooper commander tasked with quelling the rebellion and apprehending La Pointe. Shot on location with newsreel-inspired cinematography, Pontecorvo\u2019s film is a blistering, kinetic experience from beginning to end, with crowd-sized street scuffles and explosive skirmishes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Of all the memorable moments I can recall from my first time watching of <em>The Battle of Algiers<\/em>, it&#8217;s the quiet exchange between Ali and Ben M&#8217;hidi, a fellow revolutionary, that\u2019s stuck in my mind. \u201cIt\u2019s hard enough to start a revolution, even harder to sustain it, and hardest of all to win it,\u201d Ben M\u2019Hidi tells Ali. \u201cBut it\u2019s only afterwards, once we\u2019ve won, that the real difficulties begin.\u201d \u2014<em>TE<\/em><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-none\">The Conformist<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/5-movies-about-revolution-to-watch-while-you-wait-for-andor-season-2-3.jpg\" alt=\"Two women dancing in the middle of a crowd in The Conformist.\" title=\"Two women dancing in the middle of a crowd in The Conformist.\" data-has-syndication-rights=\"1\" data-caption=\"\" data-portal-copyright=\"Image: Paramount Home Entertainment\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\"><strong>Director:<\/strong> Bernardo Bertolucci<strong><br \/>Cast: <\/strong>Jean-Louis Trintignant, Stefania Sandrelli, Gastone Moschin<strong><br \/>Where to watch:<\/strong> Kanopy, Hoopla; available to rent on Amazon, Apple, and Vudu<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">There\u2019s two sides to every rebellion. For every uprising clamoring to be seen and heard, there\u2019s a status quo pulling strings to stamp it out. For every revolutionary, there is a collaborator. In <em>Andor<\/em>, that collaborator is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/23351807\/andor-star-wars-villain-syril-karn\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/23351807\/andor-star-wars-villain-syril-karn\">Syril Karn<\/a>, a civil servant with a dedication to the Galactic Empire that borders on fanatical. In Bernardo Bertolucci\u2019s 1970 classic <em>The Conformist<\/em>, that collaborator is Marcello Clerici, a mid-level flunky for the Italian Fascist secret police who is tasked with killing his mentor and former professor, an anti-Fascist dissident living in Paris.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\"><em>The Conformist<\/em> isn\u2019t just a fascinating depiction of the tacit complicity and barbarism inherent to fascist regimes, but one of the most visually stunning stories ever committed to the medium of film. Bertolucci\u2019s film has been cited by the likes of the Coen brothers, Francis Ford Coppola, and Steven Spielberg as an influence on their respective work, and for good reason. <em>The Conformist<\/em>\u2019s use of canted angle cinematography, symbolic lighting, and composition coalesces into an immaculate aesthetic whole, conveying its exploration of the depths of Clerici\u2019s cowardice and cruelty on both a visual and psychological level. Don\u2019t just watch this film because it\u2019s a terrific pairing with <em>Andor<\/em>; watch it because it&#8217;s a bona fide life-changing masterpiece. <em>\u2014TE<\/em><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-none\">The Motorcycle Diaries<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/5-movies-about-revolution-to-watch-while-you-wait-for-andor-season-2-4.jpg\" alt=\"Two men laughing and riding aboard a motorcycle in a field in The Motorcycle Diaries.\" title=\"Two men laughing and riding aboard a motorcycle in a field in The Motorcycle Diaries.\" data-has-syndication-rights=\"1\" data-caption=\"\" data-portal-copyright=\"Image: Focus Pictures\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\"><strong>Director:<\/strong> Walter Salles<strong><br \/>Cast: <\/strong>Gael Garc\u00eda Bernal, Rodrigo de la Serna, M\u00eda Maestro<strong><br \/>Where to watch:<\/strong> Available to rent on Amazon, Apple, and Vudu<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\"><em>The Battle of Algiers<\/em> wasn\u2019t the only prominent historical inspiration Caron divulged while discussing the making of <em>Andor <\/em>season 1 with The Hollywood Reporter.

But it\u2019s his scintillating drama\u00a0<em>Uptight\u00a0<\/em>that most closely relates to\u00a0<em>Andor<\/em>\u2019s themes and narratives, and it\u2019s an all-timer in the history of American movies about activism and the difficulties of organizing mass political movements amid times of despair.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Co-written by stars Ruby Dee and Julian Mayfield,\u00a0<em>Uptight\u00a0<\/em>takes place directly after the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr., and follows a group of Black activists preparing for what seems like an inevitable, larger armed racial conflict. When one of the activists \u2014 distraught by King\u2019s assassination, spiraling into alcoholism and despair, and outcast by the others \u2014 is tempted to make his life more simple by telling the police about the group\u2019s activities, tensions flare and no easy answers are found.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\"><em>Uptight&nbsp;<\/em>is an explosive, sweaty, and immaculately constructed political drama that feels as relevant as it\u2019s ever been.
