Review of The People

The People (1972 TV Movie)
7/10
A pleasant surprise from annus horribils 1972
3 March 2021
Saw The People as a youngster on a Saturday evening back when and it left my family gobsmacked - we'd never seen anything like it on television - no car chases, no explosions, no soap opera. I remembered its intriguing premise, and *many* years later, happily discovered Zenna Henderson's novels and stories that were its basis. Certainly the books were more detailed and satisfying; but this mood piece produced by Francis Ford Coppola was a creditable effort that I still remember fondly.
