Description

A small group of teen girls in 1692 Salem, Massachusetts caught in an innocent conjuring of love potions to catch young men are to tell lies that Satan had invaded them and them to participate in the rites and are then to name those involved. Thrown into the mix are greedy preachers and other major landowners trying to steal others' land and one young woman infatuated with a married man and determined to get rid of his innocent wife. Arthur Miller wrote the events and the subsequent trials where those who demanded their innocence were executed, those who would not name names were incarcerated and d, and those who admitted their guilt were immediately freed as a parable of the Congressional Communist witch hunts led by Senator Joe McCarthy in 1950's America.

    Hab den Film im Fernseher gesehen und kann nur sagen überraschend gut. Etwas Theatralisch aber nie Kitschig übertrieben.....Leute mit Schwachen Nerven sollten den Film allerdings aus dem weg gehen :)
