"Gun City" is a great film by any standards set for quality cinema. Directed by Dani de la Torre it is a historical film of violence in 1921 Barcelona with brutality, treachery and more finely presented by a talented director. Despite the grimness and tragedy of the story, the film is beautiful with a magnificent score that adds to its total brilliance. I saw it on Netflix with English subtitles but that did not distract from its impact. Clearly, this is an award-worthy film on many counts - directing, music, cinematography, acting, and script. This would easily compete with any USA film in the same genre.
