This is by no means a poor translation.

The title of the film refers to a scene in the movie where one of the soldiers dances (hence `waltz`) while firing his machine gun in front of a poster of Bashir Gemayel, the former leader of the Christian forces in Beirut, and an ally of Israel.

That work for you?

next time see the movie first
