Review of The Petrified Forest (1973) by Alec B — 03 Jan 2013
"The Petrified Forest" (Archie Mayo, 1936) is most fascinating for its eager willingness to voice criticisms of wealth, power, authority, and inequality in America. Perhaps its acute social commentary should be unsurprising considering that Warner Brothers released the romantic crime drama during the depths of the Great Depression.
In doing so, who wants to watch battles of real life on the movie screen?
