Directed and co-scripted by Daniel Taradash, this reflection on the rights and responsibilities of citizens was a timely response to Anti-Communist sentiment in the 1950’s. A small town librarian (Bette Davis) stands up to local pressure to remove a controversial book from the shelves - on principal, not out of sympathy for its perspective. Also co-stars Brian Keith and Kim Hunter. (Via Vision Entertainment)
