CGiii Comment
A re-make of the 1963 propaganda-laden film...
The very worst and best of mankind...are shown in this superior television film.
For want of a better word...harrowing, from start to finish.
The deftness of the direction...plays with the heartstrings...as does the absorbing score.
Truly, this deserved a cinematic release.
