Black Fury (1935)
6/10
Good despite a rare performance by Paul Muni.
2 April 2021
Directed by Michael Curtiz, the story in a dramatic tone of a miner who leads the fight of the workers against the owners of the mines. It is entertaining from start to finish, the struggle of the workers and their different positions due to their contexts are visible and it is approached with a certain respect. In technical aspects it is tedious for the most part, it is noted that the intention was not the highlight of those resources but the plot itself. Very good setting and effects in the same way.

At an interpretive level it seemed strange to me, Paul Muni gives a striking performance and I am not saying it positively, he is seen over acting all the time and forced, instead of a rustic man he gives the image of a caveman, without a doubt it is not one of his best interpretations.
