The Klansman (1974)
Director: Terence Young
Writers: William Bradford Huie, Millard Kaufman, Samuel Fuller

Synopsis:
A small southern town has just been rocked by a tragedy: a young woman has been violently r*ped. The white town fathers immediately declare that the attacker had to be black, and place the blame on Garth, a young black man. Assuming that the men in white sheets aren't intent on holding a fair and impartial trial, Garth takes to the woods as the Klansmen lynching party hunts him down.
Reviews:
Terence Young is an efficient director and storyteller who never dramatizes his films, like as if he assumes they are dramatic enough by themselves for their mere stories. This film is full of r*pes, sensational and spectacular murders and even a massacre, but it never follows all these extremely dramatic occurrences through but leaves them sort of unfinished. But the direction is skilful to say the least. Actors like Richard Burton, Lee Marvin, O.J.Simpson, Cameron Mitchell and others don't get the chance to play out their roles for the speed and efficiency of the story, although they all make great characters and act splendidly. It's an awesome story with many critical turns to it, and although the quality of the film approaches level B the film should be remembered and discussed for its story, like a testimony of the true nature of the klan. It's not a beautiful fairy tale but rather grim reality all the way, although it pretends to be fiction. It reminds you of other revolting films from the south, like Arthur Penn's "The Chase" with Marlon Brando and "In the Heat of the Night" with Rod Steiger/Sidney Poitier, but this is much more to the point. It shows and explains racism in a way that makes it impossible for any racist to remain so after having seen this minor but important film.

Lee Marvin was a scout sniper in World War 2.
He was wounded twice in the Pacific. He was in the hospital for almost a year recovering from his wounds and took up acting because it calmed his mind.
They called it shell shock, then battle fatigue and now it's PTSD.
I was Navy special operations and I understand.
Semper Fi.
Good stuff thank you
George Carlin did a bit on how the term evolved. Usually for the worse when it comes to these things.
Lee and Richard had great speaking voices.
Good old Lee Marvin and Richard Burton, the legends of all time ❤
...don't forget Lola Falana - THE hottie of the decade back then
Love how Mavis Staples of the Staple Singers leads off this movie. Carrying the torch of freedom, where that can get you killed. RIP Lee Marvin and Richard Burton.
Lee Marvin generally portrayed good guys. But, you may also recall the characters he portrayed in "Bad Day At Black Rock," and "The Wild One." Those were stellar performances. 🌎
Good to see Lee Marvin as the good guy.
Lee Marvin is a good guy>>>>> even when he's bad...
Did you know, he was a plumber for set design. Director seen him, gave him a part. Rest is history
@@joshdye1684 Now that's something interesting. I'll have to research this info further. Be right back!🐎💨
@@joshdye1684 Well, when Lee wasn't catching pumas, wild turkeys , smoking cigarettes; and getting into fights in his spare time, he was indeed a plumber's helper. Whilst working as that plumber's assistant, he was asked to replace an actor who had gotten ill during rehearsals. He obviously enjoyed it and landed a job making a small fortune of $7 dollars per week! Looks like your story checks out! Thank you for the enlightenment!🍻😂
@@originalkingalpha5116 $7 a week! Didn’t know that lol. Small fortune right there lmao
Those Fords with the Police package & big block v8s
...and the classic mag wheels on the Sheriff's cruiser!
OJ gets away with it again.😂😂
oh , he`s paying NOW !
A GREAT REMINDER OF WHO AND WHAT THE DEMOCRAT PARTY IS!
Nice try but the KKK has ALWAYS been Far Right Wing. The South has ALWAYS been a Conservative stronghold. The KKK supported Trump in 2016 as per their official newspaper the Crusader. Many prominent Klan leaders still support him. The Klan was present in Charlottesville. Last I checked Charlottesville was a Unite The Right Rally. Maybe it's time you come up with some new material but the stuff you are spewing is getting old.
was
I loved 😢 them both ❤ they were the Best in there time the great ones are all gone now but I for one enjoy watching their movies. If anybody else out there loved him like I do and did can I get an amen 🙏
🎬❤️
Amen to the brother! 🌎
You know some whiskey was consumed on this set.....
Lee Marvin is as good as actors get. Dirty Dozen was a great character for him too.
Unremarkable film. Not great, not bad either. Strange to see the star power it has.

Richard Burton with a "southern accent". Thats rich!!!
Looks like they were both paid a buck two ninety eight for this gem.
Wasn't he from Southern Wales? lol
Notice anything about Richard Burton from scene 1 hes Drunk on set and had to do most takes lying down after the film was shot Burton was taken into a clinic for alcoholism for 6 weeks to be treated .
It's been a longtime ,yea Richard Burton is a sight to always see an Coburn.
The first time I've seen this one,wow great bunch of actors 😅
Not only OJ, but OJ in the back of a Ford Bronco with a gun. 🤔
What a sad movie. Oj lived
Dang! I watched til the car with no driver braked itself followed by a minor collision that triggered fires and explosions. That craps as bad as your one guy with two guns, which incidentally never run out of bullets, wins over an army and hour long barrage of gunfire.
SHOULD BE CALLED THE DEMOCRAT.
The KKK has ALWAYS been Far Right Wing. Whether it was back 165 years ago or today 2024. The South has ALWAYS been a Conservative stronghold. Seriously....time to change your material MAGat.
I remember seeing this movie on tv ,back iñ the 70's years later i saw the OJ trial and thought wow.
Spoiler Alert: People die, everything is burning, and I am crying. Man is Beast.
Just a few minutes in to this movie and no matter what horror show is in store. The kids listening to the police the first time.
Love this movie
Every car had the Pinto self exploding gas tank even when hit from the front
This is not the original movie they have cut a lot of the scenes and dialogue we are all adults show it in it's original uncut version
Im pretty confident that i can name the exact location of every scene in this movie
Me too! And a few in Chico's Bidwell Park too...........................
They shot this in california?
@@Joespearacy2 Yep, all in Butte County
Burton was so drunk he had to sit for most of his scenes.
The Best movie👍👍
YOUR Wacked !

I couldn't finish it too much cut out of the movie
Tester is a traitor
Wrong outcome
With all these stars and it wasn’t worth a 💩..even I lost interest and I like to watch these movies from this period (I was 9 in 74)But on tv was a really good show “Kolchek The Night Stalker “
Thank You for sharing this film. Appropriate because of the recent Trump dinners at Mar a Lago and there are good people on both sides comment by Donald. i always like the drama of these older movies. No special effects, just good old guns and fire. I recently watched Clint Eastwood and Lee Marvin in " Paint Your Wagon" which as a lot of fun. Has some remote similarities, but no Klan or racial content. Clint sings a few numbers as dd Lee Marvin. The gold rush was the theme. Highly recommended if you liked this at all. I bought the movie track sound and film so I can watch it and listen to it anytime.. Love to Clint Eastwood and Lee Marvin.
Top film , top actors.
One of the biggest bombs ever, despite the stars.
Richard Burton is a great actor but he's American accent is terrible
This was a terrible movie. I saw it in 1975 and it was dreadful. Terence Young, Richard Burton, Lee Marvin, Cameron Mitchell, etc. must have really needed the money to be in this one.
I won't watch any movie with the O. J Simpson a prime example of americas crooked judicial system.
No one cares what you wouldn't watch
Look at the goof u people elected. U have bigger problems
THE JUICE!!!
I thought that was him 😂😂😂
Well u should care... Industry just might effect u someday but then it'll will be to late to stand up won't it? d@@ElwinSandy-zm7mx
Drive Carefully--You are in MAGA Country
what a corn ball movie.
Even though it has lots of stars, I gave the movie up @ 22:53. Dull, dull, dull.....
42:54
What, too much subject matter authenticity?
@@mugisaamooti605
Yeah, that's it.... you must be Psychic 🙄
Great old movie
OJ Simpsons first movie, lots of star power in this one. And still the made a worthless movie.
ONE OF THE WORSED MOVIES EVER MADE........what some people will do for a pay check, disgusting make no sense movie....Race issues are very very serious BUT this is one confused movie...very poorly done movie...TOTALLY STUPIED !
I completely agree. The movie makes crime look like it’s nothing and that’s a terrible motive to make a movie.
"worsed"????😂 Try worst illiterate tool😂😂😂
Don't watch it ¡!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pity that as a movie critic that you cannot spell!
Joseph Stalin is more likable then Lance Armstrong.
Where is Jurgen Klingsman!
OJ was rehearsing for his future
I GUESS HE JUST DWCIDED TO CHANGE HIS WEAPON OF CHOICE, HUH?
Movie about democrats!
