"to say it in plain words"
1 November 2020
Oh my dog this one tops all of the others. Amalgamation of a lot of the anarchist history of the 1910's and 1920's in a same plot including Emma Goldman, Sacco & Vanzetti, the palmer raids, Hoover's files, the IWW, and insurrectionary advocate Luigi Galeani as the bad guy, as well as John Rockefeller, in an italian looking new york city of the time. Folks playing bocce, everyone speaks italian and the buildings look rather mediterranean. The story is all mixed up though, but revolves around the sending of bombs through the mail to the doorsteps of many conservatives and capitalists. It turns out these people are part of an organisation who wants to further control the american population and restrict immigration and are using the "anarchist" threat in order to do so. to pick one of the problems of the movie, the protagonist is william flynn, whose nickname was "the anarchist hunter", and plays the role of the good cop...
