Buying this for my husband
|
| I saw this movie many years ago and loved it. What I've read in the most recent reviews, however, leaves out that the script is based on a real, historic trial and hanging that took place in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. It is notorious in that the man whose character is portrayed by Sean Connery, before being hung, placed his hand on the wall of his cell and swore his innocence. The handprint can still be seen in the jail, which is now an historic landmark. It has been scrubbed, sanded, and even painted over -- yet it still shows through. Now that it is available in DVD form, I am buying it for my husband, who I think will enjoy it. We both decend from Pennsylvania mining stock -- not Irish, but Jewish! In fact, during the mining violence of the 1920s, my uncle delivered payroll to the mines. The rules said he had to carry a gun and ammunition -- so he carried a .23 pistol and a 12-gauge shotgun shell, claiming the rules did not say the ammunition had to match the gun and he had no intention of killing anyone. . . . . |
