A Storm in Summer (1970)
Video please...
With the movie, itself, winning the Emmy for that year and Ustinov winning Best Actor (Emmy)...despite whatever Serling's reservations might have been...this movie (of all the Hallmark Hall of Fame movies of the time) deserves to be available AT LEAST as an iTunes download. I enjoyed this movie so much back when it was first released that I actually recorded the soundtrack (only) on a reel to reel audio machine when it was repeated (a few months later)(recording long lost). Personally, I think Ustinov did an amazing job of characterizing a New York Jewish man. I guess it is a rather Tevye-like performance, so it was timely as Fiddler on the Roof was very popular at the time. But the theme is right out of the civil-rights era and is memorable on every level.
