  • "Unjustly sent to prison"? Last I checked, burglary and theft were against the law.

  • @nobrainer345 is this that movie?

  • thumbs up if u cried when the dad died at the end

  • CLASSIC...

  • Wonderful film.I can't believe Paul Winfield was a homosexual.Such a classic movie.I can't find it on dvd.

  • NIGGEROLOGY The advanced study of black people.

  • The most timeless film ever made. The whole cast, even Sounder, deserved a truckload of awards Everything about it was great..the soundtrack featured Lightnin' Hopkins & Taj Mahal. Taj acts well in it. It's painful to watch the way African Americans were treated and even harder to believe that this was portraying events only a mere 70 yrs ago. It still shakes me when the dog gets shot.

  • what would I give to watch this illuminating piece from Martin Ritt...

  • Mr. Obama's American ancestors were WHITE, not BLACK slaves!!!

  • my sister took me to this is when I was around 9 and I loved it
