| User ReviewDanielle SIn 1932, the nation was shocked when the 14-month-old son of Charles Lindberg was kidnapped, held for ransom, and murdered. Two years later, Bruno Richard Hauptmann was arrested, convicted, and executed. This film dramatizes the investigation against Hauptmann, the trial, and the execution, painting a picture of a corrupt police force under pressure to finger a killer framing an innocent man by manufacturing evidence, paying-off and blackmailing witnesses, and covering up exculpatory evidence. There?s a certain spark missing, but this is nevertheless an engaging, juicy presentation of the case, as the filmmakers vehemently try to convince the viewer of foul play. Stephen Rea is quite good as the bluff, painfully trustful Hauptmann, watching in wide-eyed shock as facts about his case are swept under the rug in the face of public thirst for a conviction. Isabella Rosselini is even better as his wife, who early on sees the direction events are taking, and whose pain and outrage make the film vibrate with shared injustice. Factually and emotionally, the story is right on target. |
| User ReviewRodsella AI actually thought this movie was good, Stephen Rea plays Bruno Hauptmann - the man accused of killing Lindberg's infant son. He is great and so is Isabella Rossellini. |
| User ReviewSerge LPas trop mauvais. Bonne re-création de l'histoire de l'enlèvement du bébé de Lindberg et de faire payer un innocent pour le crime. Le crime du siècle est en fait l'histoire du mec qu'on voulait coupable. Les vrais coupables ne sont pas inquiétés, évidemment. On est aux États-Unis! |
