11May1958 CBS Sun
Host James Macandrew
Synopsis:
Dramatic conclusion of the two-part program based on the true case from 1920
about Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti,
two Italian immigrants and devout anarchists, were accused of robbery and
murder. Their subsequent trial and execution
captivated the world and exposed many of the cultural and political tensions
of 1920s America.
*NOTE: Steven H. Scheuer review:
CBS little appreciated Sunday a.m. stanza, Camera Three, just completed a
particularly rewarding two-part series on the
famous Sacco-Vanzetti trial of the mid-20's. This nonsponsored show felt no
compunctions about showing the hysteria surrounding
the trial at that time and indicating that many eminent jurists, including
Supreme Court Justice Frankfurter, feel that the
two men received notoriously unfair treatment at the hands of the
Massachusetts Court.
Several live TV dramas shows in the last couple of years had wanted to do a
program based on the Sacco-Vanzetti case but,
in each case, the sponsor vetoed the idea, claiming it was "too
controversial" some So years later.
