Alan Parker’s “Mississippi Burning” feels like the most authentic representation of rural Mississippi in 1964, this acute sense of time is the lifeblood of the film. The movie captures so forcefully the look, the feel, the very smell, of racism. This was more than a gritty police drama, it’s an important statement about a time and condition that can’t be forgotten.
