BELL AND COBB ARE AT IT AGAIN
I just finished watching Incident in a Small Town on a homemade video tape and was glad to see it is on DVD. I have watched them in Against Her Will and The Incident and was pleased to see them in a third pairing. I loved the old-time look to the movie about an earlier time where certain things were viewed in a different way. Judge Bell and his daughter Lily had a falling out, but now she is in a situation where she needs his help. A man from her past named Frank shows up, and turns out to be the father of her son John. At first Frank seems interested in getting to know John, who does not know the man is his father, but soon exhibits less-than-chivalrous behavior and ends up dead. It is Judge Bell himself who confesses to the crime, with Cobb representing him in the trial. Then Lily confesses to the murder, and it is up to Cobb to put the pieces together to reveal who really killed Frank. The movie ultimately has a happy ending with father and daughter reconciled, and the judge getting to know his grandson. I would recommend this movie and the other two for those who would like to experience a slower-paced life with two actors who paired up so well together.

incident in small town....
A great show of characters. Cobb and Bell make the best duos in these feature films.

Bell's daughter is having a problem with her son's father. She has to ask judge Bell for his help. It looks like they won't be able to bring justice but of course our heroes are up to par.

Can Justice prevail in wartime?
When a small town attorney whose practice is failing is selected by government officials to be the means of railroading to the gallows a German soldier accused of murdering a beloved local physician, the case turns out to more complicated. The background is WWII and Germany is threatening to execute some American prisoners. Anyone in this small U.S. small town who takes on the case of a German prisoner will be villified.

The actors in this film are uniformly excellent. In my opinion, This is Walther Matthau's outstanding role.

Anyone will find watching this DVD most rewarding.
