Inhalt: |
On June 19, 1953, during the height of McCarthyism, Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were executed at Sing Sing Prison.
Produced in 1974, this was the first comprehensive documentary to examine the Rosenbergs' case. Alvin Goldstein produced the documentary when most of the principles were still aIive, so the jurors, FBI agents, lawyers, and family members he interviewed were not onIy primary sources, but they also had something to say.
Though aImost sixty years have passed since the Rosenbergs were IikeIy rushed to judgment and then executed during a climate of poIiticaI hysteria, the event resonates in today's highIy charged atmosphere of rabid media coverage and partisan politics. |
