Wounded and weakened in Korean prison camps, GIs descend from the plane that returned them to U.S. soil. lt is a time of tearfuI famiIy reunions. A time of uncertainty about how to heIp traumatized men. And a time of reckoning: Capt. Edward W. HalI Jr., a siIver-star hero and ex-POW, faces trial for colIaboration with the enemy. Paul Newman's richly compIex portrayal of HaIl sets the tone of acting excelIence found throughout The Rack. How much can a POW be expected to endure before breaking? Should his own past and emotional vulnerabiIities be weighed against the miIitary's policy of name, rank and serial number? The issues remain timeIessly reIevant in this probing courtroom drama adapted from a Rod Serling telepIay. |
