I saw this film as a youngster in school.
The whole school system was making a big fuss about "the experiment".
We had just concluded our very own version of it in our class and when our teachers told us that there was a FILM about it, the entire class was so eager to see how other kids had reacted.
We all had to write a short essay, I think it was maybe a paragraph or two.
Here is the full length version of "The Eye of the Storm" in its original screen resolution.
This film needs to be restored and redistributed in schools around the country as a required assignment if we ever expect to get a handle on our troubles and put race as an issue behind us forever.
There is NO NEED, in my humble opinion, to do a more modern version, because perhaps the antiquity of this film is a part of the lesson in and of itself. Perhaps that will show youngsters that we have been struggling to deal with this as a society for a very long time.
Maybe that will inspire today's young students to want to be the generation that finally puts it to rest for all time.
God Bless Mrs. Elliott.
