When their ceremony is witnessed by the town minister, the girls suddenly find themselves accused of witchcraft. Soon the entire village is consumed by cries of witchcraft, and as the hysteria grows, blameless victims are torn from their homes, leading to a devastating climax.
Critics Consensus: This staid adaptation of The Crucible dutifully renders Arthur Miller's landmark play on the screen with handsome production design and sturdy performances, if not with the political anger and thematic depth that earned the drama its reputation. Miller David V. Information Studio 20th Century Fox. Genre Drama. More like this.
Watch options. Storyline Edit. A small group of teen girls in Salem, Massachusetts caught in an innocent conjuring of love potions to catch young men are forced to tell lies that Satan had invaded them and forced them to participate in the rites and are then forced to name those involved. Thrown into the mix are greedy preachers and other major landowners trying to steal others' land and one young woman infatuated with a married man and determined to get rid of his innocent wife.
Arthur Miller wrote the events and the subsequent trials where those who demanded their innocence were executed, those who would not name names were incarcerated and tortured, and those who admitted their guilt were immediately freed as a parable of the Congressional Communist witch hunts led by Senator Joe McCarthy in 's America.
Whats some hearts desire they must possess. Rated PG for intense depiction of the Salem witch trials. Did you know Edit.

Quotes John Proctor : Because it is my name! User reviews Review. Top review. Impressing and well-done. It is a very impressing, beautiful, well-acted and well-done film. The story of passion, lies, madness, witchcraft and tragedy kept my attention. The adaptation of Arthur Miller's play is superb. Joan Allen deserved her nomination for the Oscar as best supporting actress and Daniel Day-Lewis should have been nominated. A must see. There was a problem retrieving your parental controls.
