- Citazioni
Max Feldman: If the Nazis march in here in Skokie, you can believe me I will be there. I will be there with baseball bats, with a gun, with anything. I will be in Skokie if the Nazis will march.

Recensione in evidenza
This film is based on actual events that occurred around 1977-1978 in the small village town of Skokie which is located in Cook County, Illinois, United States, neighboring the City of Chicago's northern border. It is a story about a group of National Socialist Party of America v. Village of Skokie, 432 U. S. 43 (1977), arising out of what is sometimes referred to as the Skokie Affair, which was a landmark decision of the US Supreme Court dealing with freedom of speech and freedom of assembly.
The film concentrates more or less on the disgust of the majority of the towns residents who wanted no part of the likes of the National Socialist Party who threatened to lead a parade through the village of Skokie in their Neo Nazi uniforms wearing swastikas.
As like most people who have learned about the Holocaust I can appreciate how any reminder of that period of time in our history although never to be forgotten should not be glorified by any party or individual. This may be a film that circles the drain about free speech, but the only speech that was prevalent was angry and long winded and took away from the critical point between two groups of very different opinions.
Some very distinguished actors provided the film its credibility but I believe the film would have been better with fewer long winded speeches from only one side of the conversation.
I give the film a passable 5 out of 10 IMDb rating.
