The Molly Maguires was a secret society of militant coal miners who battled their exploitation by mine owners with violence, intimidation and sometimes murder. Based on actual events, this gripping story is a sympathetic and accurate account of the Irish-American miners struggle. Richard Harris plays a detective on undercover assignment for the owners, fighting to win the workers trust and finally, fighting his own conscience. Sean Connery is the tough and suspicious leader of the Mollies who repeatedly tests the newcomers loyalty.
Excellent photography and fine action scenes add to the realism of this vivid social drama.
