As if one fine folk singer weren't
enough, Smitty's guest guitarist
Dave Causel brought out some of
the wildest blues guitar I've ever
heard. Before the reader believes
me a functional illiterate, allow
me to defend my position byex-
plaining that Dave Causel, while
he, plays the harnonica with Bob
Dylan type holder, he plays a
guitar with the strings somehow
crossed over each other which
makes a sound that just defies
description. Causel guitar is some-
thing to be taken seriously. He
mixes some really strange sounds
and comes out with a beautiful
effect.
It's good to know that there's
something good that's still free.

"Eminently succeeds. A good court-
room drama that bombards the view-
er. This dramatic materializatin of
witnesses before the eye and ear has
much more immediacy and impact
thon the printed word. Vivid and
forcefully presented."
Bosley Crowther-NEW YORK TIMES
"Here it is, the people who actually
saw something and believed that the
truth never did fully reveal itself. The
people are real, the incidents are
there on the record. Very compelling,
a good strong job. It will tend to de-
stroy your peace of mind."
Archer Winsten-NEW YORK POST
"The camera never lies, it is hard not
to believe these eye-witness accounts.
It is one thing to read written testi-
mony but quite something else to
observe witnesses' facial reactions to
questions and hear testimony from
their own lips. The film should win
new sceptics of the Warren Comms-
sion over to Lane's side."
