"Arriving in a sleepy Southern town on the eve of integration, slick charismatic Adam Cramer is an ominous influence, inciting its white citizens into a racial fervor, and plunging the once quiet community into a state of chaos"--Container. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

The Intruder" is robust in the extreme in regard to its overall themes and pulls no punches in regard to its message. Beaumont's screenplay and Corman's economic and studied direction powerfully highlight the dangers of rhetorical political demagoguery and how that can lead to unintended and violent outcomes on the streets. It's a message with just as much political resonance today as it did when first filmed. Corman doesn't shy away from some brutal racist language, which makes the film a challenging and abrasive watch for modern, more politically correct audiences, but his approach is absolutely correct and ensures that the evils of racism are properly and appropriately illustrated. The film is shot in clean, clear black-and-white by cinematographer Taylor Byars who, along with Corman, makes excellent use of authentic locations. William Shatner delivers a first class performance as Adam Cramer which belles his reputation as a b-grade actors. Shatner is powerful, commanding and impressive, with the right mix of overblown oratory, ingratiating subtlety and poisonous charisma to give the character of Cramer the required persona.
All this makes "The Intruder" a powerful and brave statement that Roger Corman handles with great skill. His direction keeps the story taut and focused, delivering a powerful piece of polemic that gets to the heart of the appeal of politicians peddling dangerously simple answers, while at the same time it skewers the evils of racism and intolerance. This film is far from being my favourite Roger Corman film, but it is probably his best conventional film and without a doubt his most important. "The Intruder" deserves much greater and much wider recognition. ( )
