520    A leftist revolutionary or a reformist democrat? A 
       committed Marxist or a constitutionalist politician? An 
       ethical and moral man or, as Richard Nixon called him, a 
       "son of a bitch"? In Salvador Allende, acclaimed Chilean 
       filmmaker Patricio Guzmán (The Battle of Chile and Chile, 
       Obstinate Memory) returns to his native country thirty 
       years after the 1973 military coup that overthrew Chile's 
       Popular Unity government to examine the life of its leader,
       Salvador Allende, both as a politician and a man. Using 
       rare archival footage, family photos, interviews with 
       Allende's friends, professional colleagues, his daughters 
       and other relatives as well as UP militants, workers, 
       journalists, his personal secretary and Edward Korry, 
       former U.S. Ambassador to Chile, Salvador Allende portrays
       the life, times and political formation of the Valparaiso-
       born doctor who was active in Socialist Party politics as 
       a senator and who ran unsuccessfully for President three 
       times before finally being elected in 1970. The film 
       focuses on the tumultuous three years following Allende's 
       election, and the declaration of his socialist program, 
       "la via chilena," which nationalized large-scale 
       industries and began an agrarian reform program. Former 
       U.S. Ambassador Korry provides an insider's account of 
       President Nixon and Henry Kissinger's determination to 
       thwart Allende, but he is unrepentant about the CIA-
       sponsored coup that overthrew the Chilean government. In a
       lively debate, former UP militants argue over Allende's 
       failure to defend the government, especially his failure 
       to arm and mobilize a people's militia as a counterforce 
       to the army, in the period leading up to the coup. 
       Salvador Allende also reveals little-known, more intimate 
       aspects of the man, with moving personal reminiscences of 
       his sense of humor, his remarkable energy, personal 
       charisma and popular political appeal. Through archival 
       footage and eyewitness and participant accounts, the film 
       re-creates the military assault on the Moneda, Allende's 
       last radio broadcast to the people of Chile, and rare 
       photos and footage documenting the final actions of 
       Allende and his staff on that day, including his suicide. 
       Guzmán's personalized voice-over commentary provides a 
       compelling narrative thread for this political biography, 
       one which, in his attempt to understand the impact of 
       Allende on his own life and his nation's political history,
       also serves to illuminate this controversial and 
       inspirational public figure for an international audience.
