Reviews
Variety - Parker pushes the picture along at a fervent clip, with the character scenes back-to-back with chases or violence., New York Times - Insistent [...] MISSISSIPPI BURNING is first-rate, Washington Post - MISSISSIPPI BURNING surveys the geography of racism, sheds light on the dark night of the soul., Sight and Sound - An almost visionary intensity
Additional Information
In 1964, when three civil-rights workers, two white and one black, mysteriously disappear while driving through Mississippi, two FBI agents, Ward (Willem Dafoe) and Anderson (Gene Hackman), are sent in to investigate. While Ward is young and by the book, Anderson is a seasoned southerner comfortable with the Byzantine (and, to Ward, morally ambiguous) ways of his region. Together they sift through a variety of leads and come up empty-handed--until the town sheriff's wife (Frances McDormand) steps forward and reveals some surprising information. In order to solve the case, the two contrasting agents must not only overcome the hostility of the local authorities and the black community but contend with their own differences as well.<BR>A fictionalized account of one of the landmarks in the civil-rights movement, MISSISSIPPI BURNING is a swift and powerful film. Director Alan Parker, continuing his investigation of human cruelty (begun explosively in his harrowing 1978 film MIDNIGHT EXPRESS), crafts a historically poignant film that fingers the monstrosities of a virulent strain of racial intolerance in America. Dafoe and Hackman are convincing as they investigate the disappearance of the civil-rights workers and unravel the grisly web of obfuscation around a scandalous, cancerous truth very near the heart of a nation.

    As far as I'm concerned this film is the best thing that Gene Hackman ever appeared in, a brilliant film and well worth seeing. I love buying from Music Magpie because they make sure that their stock is in good condition. The DVD is unmarked and plays perfectly. The other plus is that by buying used the item itself remains sustainable, not that I intend to part with my copy anytime soon.

    disc 'sticks on scene 6' of dvd, so an entire scene has to be skipped in order to view the remainder of the movie, not acceptable, this the 'second dvd' that have received like this that were supposed to be in 'VGC'. and both 'freeze on scenes', thus missing out on large parts of the 'storylines'.

    Gene Hackman classic.

    Great Film. Purchased it to have something to remember the late great Gene Hackman by. Gripping story and powerful performance all around.

  • Powerful and unmissable!

    The film is very realistic and gut-wrenching. Powerful character-development by the lead actors, with excellent camera-work. Unmissable!

  • An excellent look back into the history of the racial issues of the southern US.

    This is a very well made story about the racial turmoil in Mississippi in the 60's. 3 civil rights activists disappear and the FBI is sent to investigate. They have no way of knowing that their investigation would spark off an explosive situation, involving the KKK, that would effect the whole community.
