Comments: This movie uses the Red Scare in early 1950s America to promote free thinking and justice. The movie is well-performed and engaging and conveys a clear message.
It could, perhaps, be compared to the 2001 Patriot Act, which allows the government to monitor American citizens. Ironically, the Patriot Act was spearheaded by a Wisconsin Congressman just like the 1950s Un-American Activities Committee.
