Audience Reviews for Shame

Jul 20, 2018

William Shatner's best came early, as a Northern rabble-rouser let loose in a small Southern town during the onset of integration. Well acted and directed, it may be the only film of its ilk that avoids the awkward preaching of so many similar films. A Roger Corman film??? You bet.

A stranger arrives in a small American town to stir up racial tension. It's a must-see.

makes ya cringe to think this shit went on only 50 years ago. nice to see someone making a movie about it though and raising awareness. captain kirk was pretty unlikeable in this... and he couldn't beam out at the end either when it all went a bit pear shaped for him. looking at the people in this movie though... how can people be so dumb?
