    Harlan County, USA is such a good movie. Its fine and cool to be like, "I'm a marxist-leninist-communist" in our little rooms in front of our little screens, but watching a room full of miner's wives cheer when another gets up and says "We have nothing to lose but our chains!" while participating in self-organized worker's councils, it really made me reconsider what it means to be communist.
