      Steve D Fun enough because of its odd cast. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/28/24 Full Review Frank S Very good movie. Good script stayed very close to the actual facts. Well acted and shows what that time in the south was like. The small town corruption yet the honest people on the other side. Worth the watch Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/29/20 Full Review Audience Member Great movie! Too bad it's based on a true story, but the acting is very good and I especially liked June Carter Cash. She adds a little humor to an otherwise very serious movie. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member Andy Griffith stands out as an evil man who has an entire county under his influence in this otherwise stiff true crime procedural. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Really cool to see Mr. Cash acting, Andy Griffith does fine work as well. It is a T.V movie though. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Surprisingly good for a made for TV movie. Griffith and Cash both turn in good performances, but Griffith steals the show. Griffith is so good at being subtle, that you automatically accept him in whichever character he projects. There is no sense of embellishment in his performances. He delivers with an honest subtlety that we ususually pick up from people to judge their true character. This mastery of skill is evident here. I had never before seen Mr. Griffith in a villainous role, and I was barely a minute in, before I disliked his character. Regarding, production quality- it is a 1980s made for TV movie. Take it for what it is. Also featured, June Carter Cash, as an "Amazing Oracle". Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
