It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

If I wanted to listen to a bunch of screaming for an hour and a half, I would go to a Justin Bieber concert. The only spoiler here is if you don't want a migraine, refrain from this garbage. The cast lured me in thinking this would be good. Anything but. Overacting by most of the cast, adolescent girls screaming their heads off the whole movie, men yelling, women yelling, just pure nonsense. I hoped for something good, now I will have to drink myself to sleep.

First.... I can't believe this is a made for TV movie... seems too well acted, too many great actors, and set design/period too well done, for a "made for TV stamp" to be on this movie.I never thought much about Shirley MacLaine.... just as a has-been sex symbol, and fluff actress (like early Natalie Wood). But when I saw this movie....WOW... she sheds all vanity and modesty, and delivers a powerful performance worthy of an (other??) Oscar. Piousness, Humbleness, sympathetic...all the qualities I thought this actress was not (didn't she do a Las Vegas show recently??)... she played all this, so movingly.Peter Ustinov was at his best, too, playing a villain, yet showing his character as more complex, who feels sorrow at what he does, but still metes out his brand of misplaced judgment.As high a drama as this was, I noted much of the movie as historically accurate enough, making this a great movie. On par with "Judgment at Nuremburg" (another star-clogged movie, that ended up being a great success).

This movie came with perfect timing. My senior high school play was "The Crucible" and this movie gave me some great in-depth as to my character (Mrs. Ann Putnam). To think that all this actually did happen is both sad and crazy. In response to the previous comment, children may have been expected to be "seen not heard", however the truth remains that that movie is a fairly accurate representation of history. Kirstie Alley was awesome, I loved how she portrayed her character, it made me both hate her and pity her. Kudos to the actors and directors, that is a heavy intense script and to have kept your performances strong throughout is amazing.

i think that maybe you just can't handle the history side of the movie. Maybe thats why you found it so boring because you are so used to watching movies jam packed with crap. This was a very factual and exciting movie. Having been in a history class and doing my project on it I found the movie very helpful. The movie was practically all fact. A few minor mistakes but overall well done. Maybe you just can't appreciate the history behind things and you should be watching things like Not another Teen Movie. Sry!
