Title: Marvin and Burton??
Review: I can't believe two great actors would lend their names to this catastrophe. It wouldn't even make the B-movie list. Reviewers said there was a lot of editing out of violence. I can't imagine what could be restored to make this worth anything. It was cliche-ridden, poorly written and poorly acted. For example Burton's character was supposed to be crippled--Richard Burton hardly ever maintained that simple bit of acting. The Klan was an evil entity. Actually more insidious than the film depicts. So much more could have been made out of the story. Even the climactic scene was cut short. I can't believe it, but the best acting was done by OJ Simpson. Then there was the penniless white woman who was raped, She had a hair color job and make up that would have cost a month's salary--not convincingly destitute. Her rape was never cleared up--among several loose threads left dangling.It was even worse than the first BILLY JACK from the same era.
