She happens to witness the beating death of a man at the hands of the KKK. Rogers soon discovers that the whole town is controlled by this vigilante group, and that her loutish brother-in-law Steve Cochran is one of the group's members. D.A. Ronald W. Reagan is the man who breaks the stranglehold of the hooded terrorists--through the simple expedient of walking into one of their meetings and calmly identifying each of them by name. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Critic Reviews

Emanuel Levy, EmanuelLevy.Com
This well acted melodrama, starring Ginger Rogers, Doris Day, and Ronald Reagan, depicts the KKK terror reign over a typical American small town.

Dennis Schwartz, Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Good on spectacle but trivializes the serious subject of race hatred with an inadequate depiction of the KKK.
