Movie Reviews of Incident In A Small TownMovie Review: #3 of 3 Matthau/Morgan period law dramas--TOP NOTCH Summary: 5 Stars
This third of three dramas with Matthau playing a lawyer, and Morgan a judge/lawyer, now teamed together as partners, is a partnership that ends (UNFORTUNATELY) with this final movie-length episode of fighting crime. They take place during in 1944, 1947, and 1953, respectively with the three movies. This is perhaps the best of the three, but that is hard to say for sure, and completely subjective. My suggestion is that you quickly buy all 3, you will want to see all three after seeing just one, watch them in order, and decide for yourself. I'm sure you will decide you got your money's-worth-plus.
This "Incident in a Small Town" segment deals with a murder, and court room drama over who actually did the killing and the motive behind the act. It is tied together with such a integrated set of circumstances and relationships that guessing the startling conclusion is not worth the energy. Just sit back and enjoy drama done perfectly by the Matthau/Morgan paired leadership of the cast.
The period scenes, sets, props, and all other details are so perfect you will enjoy the series for just the nostalgic romp back into time, even though the subjects presented in the cases are not the easy-living, innocent memories, most late 40s/early 50s productions try to present. These are all 3, emotional to the hilt, deep relationships addressed, and heart-warming for a conclusion. What's not to like, right?
5-stars for all 3 dramas. Also see my reviews of:
"The Incident"
"Against Her Will: An Incident in Baltimore"
