Still Thrilling

Rating: 8/10 (3 March 2019)

Thrilling and strong movie - like In the Heat of the Night a classic with Willem Dafoe and Gene Hackman delivering strong performances. What makes In the Heat of the Night in my opinion the stronger movie, is the fact, that making the movie in 1968 the actors and people involved in making the movie had clearly more connection to those times depicted, the details in "painting" even the minor roles and supporting characters make the difference here.
Anyway, (re)watching Mississippi Burning is still a thrilling experience.
