Review of Salt of the Earth (1954) by Melissa A — 20 Nov 2007
Powerful movie. Deals with issues that still plague this country more than fifty years after this movie was made. Prejudice. Hate. The dehumanizing of Mexican laborers. This film is about justice, hope and the dignity that all people should be given without a second thought.
As a third generation Mexican-American, this film gives me insight on the lives my ancestors (once miners in NM and AZ) might have lived.
