Paul Muni delivers forceful discourse and oration with apparent ease and conviction as a young radical thinker and as an elder man of untiring principle – he’s wonderful at it all. 

  Dramatic segments satisfy emotionally and at times are rousing, from the celebration of the written word to the cleaning out of corruption and the winning out of justice.

  William Dieterles’s direction is robust, meaningful and fresh, with impeccably paced story construction.
