Sacco & Vanzetti Ratings & Reviews
48 Hills
Dennis Harvey
A large-scale narrative feature...Complete with a theme song by Joan Baez.
TheArtsStl
Sarah Boslaugh
...there's a lot to enjoy in this film, including the mix of factual content and melodrama, well-staged tableaux, and committed acting performances.
Celluloid Dreams
Peter Canavese
A well done and thoughtful version of a damning American story about immigrants railroaded, unjustly accused, arrested and tried.
Los Angeles Free Press
Arthur Ross
This emotionally bludgeoning film should be seen.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Crust
... the 81-minute film contains a surprising amount of information about the two Italian-born immigrants who were tried, convicted and executed in Boston amid accusations of grave injustice.
New York Times
Vincent Canby
... an Italian film that elects to play on our best prejudices rather than make a reasonable or eloquent plea for truth.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
I was complaining a month ago that this has been a lousy year for movies, now all of a sudden there's a rush of good ones, and this is one of the best.
Chicago Reader
Dave Kehr
The trial was an insult to justice, but this 1971 film -- an Italian-U.S. production -- is an insult to the viewer's intelligence, as heavy-handed and phony as any of the right-wing propaganda of the 50s.
