Evengyny Thanks for the memories!

ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

alexcams This great film will come as a great shock to anyone who thinks of 1950s America in Leave It To Beaver terms, and that's a very good thing. An exaggerated but not misleading portrait of a hugely racist and sexist nation at its worst, with a feel-good conclusion that rings false in light of what we've just seen and generally know to be true about the US at the time. The performances are good for the most part, but the things these people say and do may give you the creeps. The scene in front of the city hall when the local white men are about to use nitro to blow up the front door is absolutely frightening. The 50s will never seem the same again, and that's a very good thing. This movie should be part of history courses.

onairbob Trial is a movie that begs for a re-make, but in the current climate of political correctness, it is a story that cannot be told today. The Left Wing writers and actors that populate Hollywood would never allow that. This story was perfect for its time. Although it ostensibly is about the trial of a young Hispanic boy, it tells the tale of how activist groups twist and turn the laws and the people of the US in such circles that people come to believe that wrong is right. The bad guys were the Communists in this movie, but they have been defeated... or have they? Watch this movie and instead of the Communists, slip in the names of other prominent modern Leftist groups and you'll see that the story is not as dated as it looks.

kyle_furr This movie just seems to take on too much and it just doesn't work. It stars out with Glenn Ford working as a law professor who is about to be fired unless he gets some actual trial experience. He goes to several different lawyers but is turned down until he runs into Arthur Kennedy. Dorothy McGuire is his assistant and begins a relationship with Ford. They get a young Mexican boy accused of murdering a white girl as a client and Ford and Kennedy seem to be going in different directions on the case. Ford actually wants to save the boy but Kennedy just wants to raise money and make a martyr out of him but he can't do that unless the boy is found guilty. They even bring up communism in here and it just seems they bring up too much in not enough time.

helpless_dancer Pretty good drama featuring a reluctant lawyer roped into a murder trial. As usual Ford does a credible job as the harried attorney who strives to see his client gets a fair shake. To do this he must alienate many of the town's leading citizens who are, of course, looking out for #1. Worth seeing.
