If you loved Nuts, try The Molly Maguires

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Martin Ritt, and they both carry the outsider mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Nuts, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Molly Maguires is

Pennsylvania coal towns, 1876. Black powder smoke curls from a sabotaged breaker as a foreman finds his company ledger slit with a miners' knife. A Pinkerton agent infiltrates the secret society sworn to burn what feeds them. Hatched inside the strike-zone realism of 1970 New Hollywood.
