We all know this is a brilliant movie... telling, true, and so well executed. I'm curious if anyone has drawn the connection that I just did... I just saw the Life of Emile Zola for the first time (with Paul Muni) - amazing film, true story, about a Frenchman named Emile, from the end of the 19th century, who knows that affluence is not all there is to life, and that it is each of our responsibility to stand up to fight injustice and change the word to make it a better place. Sound like the hero of South Pacific perhaps? The one with the same name? Coincidence? Both movies are gems. I'd love to know if the connection was purposeful.
