Review of White Lightning (1973) by Lane C — 27 Sep 2007
Watch this film with an understanding of the time and the culture within which and for which it was created. It is a subversive political film -- made for a white southern audience adjusting to the changes set in motion by the civil rights movement.
Gator is a hero anyone could empathize with and consequently makes his stand against a repressive authority embraceable.
