The 1692 Salem witch trials are brought vividly to life in this compelling adaptation of Arthur Miller's play, directed by Nicholas Hytner, which stars Daniel Day-Lewis and Winona Ryder. When a group of teenage girls is accused of witchcraft, they accuse various townspeople as having bewitched them. As hysteria mounts, blameless victims are torn from their homes, leading to a devastating climax.

Beware the Crucible of modern times when people around you call you Bigot, Nazi, Racist, Xenophobe, etc... for you will be next on the gallows behind those who hang here! Unfortunately nothing has changed since 1693!

When I Was In High School I Did The Play In Drama Class I Played The Judge Who Hung Barbara Allen For Witchcraft, It Is A Pretty Intense Play For High School Kids

I love it, me and my class are studying and reading it and learning the 1692 Salem Witch Trials.
