Don't Tell Me the Boy Was Mad

Don't Tell Me the Boy Was Mad (French title: Une histoire de fou) is a 2015 French drama film co-written, produced and directed by Robert Guédiguian. The film is based on the true story of a Spanish journalist, José Antonio Gurriarán, who was left in a semi-paralyzed state after a bomb attack by the Armenian Secret Army for the Liberation of Armenia in Madrid in 1981. He then recounted his experiences in an autobiographical novel La Bomba, which serves as the source material for the film.[2] The film was screened in the Special Screenings section at the 2015 Cannes Film Festival.[3]

Cast

gollark: The advantage of market systems and other decentralized stuff is that they can allocate resources reasonably well without having centralization, which has issues like computing power and not really being able to consider people's individual wants well.
gollark: Also, I don't think current "AI"-y systems actually could manage countries well.
gollark: If you can think of a political opinion, some people probably agree with it.
gollark: You don't need to actually have *humans* do that sort of thing, we have the technology!
gollark: Just use a deepfake of Donald Trump for all public sessions.
