"A Face In the Crowd" by Budd Schulberg [View all]

Directed by Elia Kazan.

Info here: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0050371/?ref_=ext_shr

There is so much credence given to this film as it reflects our culture's vulnerability to the con.

If any DUer knows how to edit video clips, I'd love to see a Shitler diatribe followed by Patricia Neal (Marcia) pleading with Andy Griffith (Lonesome Rhodes) to "JUMP!!! ... Get out of my life! Get out of everyone's life!!"

Maybe it will strike the right nerve.
