    Not what I expected. Rather disjointed, as there are a number of storylines that interweave here without much purpose or significance. Some themes regarding marriage, blacks, family, a woman's freedom but not really anything very deep... it's just there.

    I just couldn't really get into this film...there is a nice array of talent however, the mish mash of storylines strain to connect to one another and eventually they fall by the way side and I just didn't care any more

    Too long. Too BORING. The story hinges on one racist event that I dont even find that racist. Uninteresting characters. A 'miniseries' i didnt care about

    I watched this with my grandparents when I was a kid. They were Cagney fans. This was worth a viewing though I haven't seen it since.

    A thoroughly enjoyable movie. Lots of stars. Mandy Patinkin is great in this too. Made me want to read the book and learn more about that time period.

    The huge cast includes a glimpse of Fran Drescher pre-nanny. For those of you who haven't read the book, it weaves three families, one black, one upper-middle-class white, and one immigrant Jewish, into stories with real people such as Henry Ford and Emma Goldman. The book is more complex and the musical more fun, but the movie is also a good incarnation of the story.
