Joe Wilson, a wrongly jailed man thought to have died in a blaze started by a bloodthirsty lynch mob, is somehow alive. And dead to all he ever stood for and perhaps ever will be. Because Joe aims to ensure his would-be executioners meet the fate Joe miraculously escaped. Spencer Tracy is Joe, Sylvia Sidney is his bride-to-be and 'Fury' lives up to its volatile name with its searing indictment of mob justice and lynching. In his first American film, director Fritz Lang ('Metropolis', 'The Big Heat') combines a passion for justice and sharp visual style into a landmark of social-conscience filmmaking. In the 49 years before this movie's release, some 6,000 people in the U.S. were victims of lynch mobs. The 'Fury' over those tragedies - and over other injustices to come - remains. EASTER EGGS
