Movie Haiku: | Documentary about Ethel & Julius Rosenberg, executed in 1953 for “stealing the secret of the atom bomb.” SPLIT DECISION: Rich thinks Meeropol should be more forthright about her grandparent’s espionage activities; Jan thinks what’s most relevant are the parallels between McCarthyism & the current threat to civil liberties after 9/11.***** For more, see the “Columns” section for Jan’s WJD review. |
