Hunter, I came across a full version of "Salt of the Earth" on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AxuNdwGhSh The description says it's "public domain" so I assume there are no copyright issues with passing the word around. The version on YouTube has captions for the hearing-impaired (which includes me thanks to an episode many years ago of shooting clay pigeons with my late father-in-law's semi-automatic Benelli shotgun, while drinking brandy with the old guy, but I digress...). Bests Jyri From Ken Hill: SALT OF THE EARTH was a very fine movie. I have a sentimental fondness for it, because an old friend of mine, Lew Johnson, was one of the extras. Fortunately, it is now readily available, via Netflix. STRUMPET CITY, a RTE miniseries based on the James Plunkett novel, is by far the finest trade union drama I've seen. It also is now easily available in the States, via Netflix and other DVD outlets.---KH HUNTER GRAY [HUNTER BEAR/JOHN R SALTER JR] Mi'kmaq /St. Francis Abenaki/St. Regis Mohawk Protected by Na´shdo´i´ba´i´ and Ohkwari' Member, National Writers Union AFL-CIO www.hunterbear.org (much social justice material) See Witch Hunt Continues: (Civil liberties, red-baiting, and smear challenges faced by a successful organizer and teacher -- with new comment, new photo: http://www.hunterbear.org/witch_hunt_continuesthe_southern.htm And see the Stormy Adoption of an Indian Child [My Father]: http://hunterbear.org/James%20and%20Salter%20and%20Dad.htm (Expanded and with more photos in June, 2012.)
