About El Salvador: Another Vietnam Movie

Directed by Glenn Silber, El Salvador: Another Vietnam (1981) is an English, Spanish-language Documentary Movie. It stars Mike Farrell. This political documentary illustrates the turbulent history of El Salvador from the 1920s-1970s, and the role of the U.S. government in that history. The most comprehensive film introduction to that country, examines the civil war there in light of the Reagan administration's decision to "draw the line" against "communist interference" in Central America. Archival material offers an overview of U.S. military and economic policy in Central America since 1948, while footage drawn from sources in the U.S., Mexico, and Europe provides extensive background to the current political and military situation.
