Ice

1970 · 133 min

A chilly, talk-heavy plunge into revolutionary paranoia, more seminar than thriller, demanding patience as it dissects commitment and doubt.

Tagline: All Power To The People!
Overview: An underground revolutionary group struggles against internal strife to stage urban guerilla attacks against a fictionalized fascist regime in the United States. Interspersed throughout the narrative are rhetorical sequences that explain the philosophy of radical action and restrain the melodrama inherent in the thriller genre.
