Riccardo Cucciolla and Gian Maria Volontè are Sacco and Vanzetti, subjects of one of the most infamous trials of the twentieth century. Boston, 1920. Italian immigrants Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, known for their anarchist beliefs, stand accused of robbery and murder. Their political leanings are used as evidence against them, but defense attorney Fred Moore (Milo O'Shea) is convinced of their innocence. As anti-immigrant and anti-radical sentiments run high, one of the most polarizing trials in U.S. history unfolds in this riveting docudrama from director Giuliano Montaldo. The musical score was composed and conducted by the great Ennio Morricone featuring folk music legend Joan Baez. The top-notch cast also includes Cyril Cusack, Geoffrey Keen, William Prince and Claude Mann.
Leave your thoughts about Sacco & Vanzetti.
| ColeSmithey.comCole SmitheyA long-held cause celebre for leftists the world over, the story of immigrant activists Sacco & Vanzetti is told in Peter Miller's rote documentary as a reference point for the way immigrants are still mistreated in America. |
| Murphy's Movie ReviewsTed MurphySurprisingly, this is the first nonfiction film to tackle the subject and Miller manages to find the parallels to contemporary times without being too pedantic or heavy-handed. |
| TV GuideKen FoxWatching the film, it's hard not to feel a cold chill of recognition, particularly when Miller's interviewees discuss immigration, patriotism and war, and civil liberties versus homeland security in a time of national crisis. |
| Reeling ReviewsLaura Clifford...Miller uses the eighty year old case as a warning relevant to post 9/11 hatred and racial profiling today. |
| Entertainment InsidersEric LurioWith cases of such importance, it's always a good idea to be reminded every now and then as to how things can go wrong, and justice means that just because a person is guilty of SOMETHING, doesn't mean that it's okay for the State frame them for something |
| Boxoffice MagazineTim CogshellLet's just say the story of Sacco and Vanzetti is a timely reminder of how things can go when politics obscure reasonable minds, and vigilance gives way vigilantism. |
| Reeling ReviewsRobin CliffordEven those of us familiar with the case will find fresh insights into a crime and punishment that is, still, wrought with controversy. |
| Film-Forward.comKent TurnerThe measured tone, though understatedly indignant regarding the miscarriage of justice, will likely draw viewers into the conversation. |
| rec.arts.movies.reviewsLouis ProyectProbing documentary on martyred leftists, with lessons for today. |
| User ReviewPrivate UThis is by no means a perfect documentary, but it does the commendable service of recounting a particularly shameful part of American history. |
