This a very professional movie made by a leftist director (Raul Peck), starring a number of rather good actors. It covers the time between 1842, when Marx was the chief editor of the Rheinische Zeitung, and early 1848, when the “Communist Manifesto” was finished. The movie focuses not only on the friendship between two young men whose theories became later enormously influential, Karl Marx and Frederick Engels; it also considers the relationships of these two men with their female partners, Jenny von Westphalen and Mary Burns, and the important role these women played. Compared with some older productions from Soviet Union and East Germany, this movie is much better in all respects.

Incontournable publication de textes sur et de Marx, dans un format original, mais qui permet de restituer une pensée complexe et riche, Le dernier Marx paru aux éditions de l’Asymétrie fera l’objet d’une note de lecture du site liremarx. En attendant celle-ci, nous relayons ce compte-rendu de lecture de Frédéric Monferrand publié en juin 2020 dans La vie des idées, à lire donc
