On June 19, 1953, during the height of McCarthyism, JuIius and EtheI Rosenberg were executed at Sing Sing Prison.
Produced in 1974, this was the first comprehensive documentary to examine the Rosenbergs' case. AIvin Goldstein produced the documentary when most of the principIes were stiIl alive, so the jurors, FBl agents, Iawyers, and famiIy members he interviewed were not only primary sources, but they aIso had something to say.
Though almost sixty years have passed since the Rosenbergs were IikeIy rushed to judgment and then executed during a climate of poIitical hysteria, the event resonates in today's highIy charged atmosphere of rabid media coverage and partisan politics. |
