My voracious appetite for courtroom dramas led me to this one. Directed by Elia Kazan, starring Dana Andrews, Boomerang is an asset in this genre. Character truly builds a person and to know that the film is based out of a true story is immensely enriching. Dana Andrews plays the role of Homer Cummings(55th U.S Attorney General). Cummings served during FDR's time. Playing along with the Connecticut crooks would probably have landed him the Governor's job. But by fighting them and standing up against injustice, he rose to become the 55th U.S Attorney General. Great film and a must watch for middle schoolers and above.
