Saturday Night Cinema: Brute Force

2

Saturday Night Cinema feature is Brute Force, starring total stud and total man's man Burt Lancaster and brilliant talent Hume Cronyn. "Brute Force" is still one of the most powerful prison film noir movies ever made.  A Universal International film (1947), the cast includes  Charles Bickford, Yvonne De Carlo, Ann Blyth, Ella Raines, Anita Colby, John Hoyt, Howard Duff, Whit Bissell, Art Smith. Director: Jules Dassin.

One of the best prison movies ever made. Jules Dassin's direction is so strong, so precise, so mind-boggling it packs a real wallop. Hume Cronyn gives a subdued but extremely scary portrayal of a sadistic brute. Always in a suave voice, always saying "I want to help you", there's only one way for him: the hard one. Burt Lancaster is equally effective as a tough inmate. But the whole cast cannot be too highly praised. (more here)

Darren and Concerned citizen; You two are in lock step with islam if you think by just talking to some one and relating statistics as Pamela does on her site every day, transfers guilt for something someone else does by his or her own free choice. In some way, you two are guilty of the sins of others simply because you talked to them about something they had some psychopathic fixation on? Get some semblance of reason in those seemingly unresponsive crainial cavities you possess. Keep up the good work Pamela!!! Jim

Funny how your type always lowers the conversation to name calling. Spewing hate and lies, which results in the death of innocent people is just not acceptable. Her material was DIRECTLY referenced by the killer! How is that not a problem? Do you not see that? Also note that Pam has been censoring our comments. Don’t you believe in free speech? Apparently only if you agree with what is written. How convenient.
