Review of Mississippi Burning (1988) by Andy P — 16 Oct 2009
Had some very interesting comments on racism and hate in general. I really liked how the film was able to make the concept of racism the real villian of the movie. You felt that there was no way for the "heroes" to win because they were fighting against something greater then just one man or organization.
They were fighting a phantom so to speak. Gene Hackman was brilliant, of course, but who really surprised me was Frances McDormand.
