    FILM DESCRIPTION:
    When a group of civil rights workers goes missing in a small Mississippi town, FBI agents Alan Ward (Willem Dafoe) and Rupert Anderson (Gene Hackman) are sent in to investigate. Local authorities refuse to cooperate with them, and the African American community is afraid to, precipitating a clash between the two agents over strategy. As the situation becomes more volatile, the direct approach is abandoned in favor of more aggressive, hard-line tactics.

    'Did you smile? Well, did you?' Hackman's rage is a force to witness. He's done it in several movies and it's ALWAYS striking to see and hear it.

    When I first saw this film I remember thinking "Gene Hackman is an absolute monster of an actor". Such a riveting combination of power and subtlety. Wonderful to know that so many other people share my deep appreciation of him. Just a masterful talent, and not surprising that he is revered by so many other actors and directors. It is just mind-blowing how good he is

      @WalkthroughArchivegreetings, yes, the sad fact remains as indeed with life itself, that not all those deserving rise to the very top (some don't want to). In fact the opposite is the reality. In this world, it's who you know not necessarily what you know. Most people don't know of Brad, but for those who appreciate great acting - he is there. The "wringing of the cat's neck" scene in the same movie one look from Brad (as in life itself) sorta tells a whole story in and of itself. Great, great acting and thus cinema of course and it takes nothing away from Hackman rather it adds to his abilities and that's how you make great movies. The thing is Gene had and has the "name" Brad didn't and doesn't, except for those who say, "that is some piece of acting! Who is that guy?"

    Gene Hackman is the ultimate actor. More so than his contemporaries, he captivated me with these kind of performances. And reading about his life story and trauma he endured as a child, shows how triumphant a spirit he had to overcome and become such a person. I remember watching him in Bat 21 and Poseidon Adventure as a kid, those were 2 of the first VHS tapes I ever saw.

    Gene Hackmans level and reach as an actor is somewhere beyond the Milky Way galaxy. Ask yourself when, if ever, you've seen such incredible passion and fire in an actor. On the badass scale of one to ten, he's a fifty! Some people, a select few, have the ability to reach outside and beyond themselves to capture the power and intensity in a performance. As a ninety year old man I have no doubt he could whip any young buck with a rocking chair and a cane. I can't think of any actor whose work I enjoy more. He couldn't produce a weak performance if he tried to. Mean Gene the acting machine.

      I believe Gene Hackman wasn't robbed for an Academy Award for Best Actor in 1989 for his role in Mississippi Burning 1988, he was excellent in the role and any other year he would have won but that Academy Award belonged to Dustin Hoffman for his phenomenal role in Rain Man 1988 and I love Gene is one of the best and my favourite actors of all time.
