FA Cup Final 1968 - West Bromwich Albion Vs Everton : short review

FA Cup Final 1968 - West Bromwich Albion Vs Everton

It was quite possibly Jeff Astle's finest moment in an Albion shirt, as he completed a feat that had never been achieved before, scoring in every round of the FA Cup, and helping his beloved West Bromwich Albion clinch their fifth FA Cup crown. Returning to Wembley after the disappointment of the 1967 league cup final, Albion faced an Everton side who boasted the likes of Kendall, Ball and Royle amongst their ranks. But with Brown, Hope and Astle, it would be a tight affair between two sides who were separated by only three league places.

Prisoner Of Shark Island, The

Based on the true-life case of the incarceration of Dr. Samuel Mudd (Oscar-winning Warner Baxter). Regarded as a personal favourite by the director, it was also the film he was said to be most happy with. Written by Nunnally Johnson (The Grapes of Wrath, Tobacco Road), The Prisoner of Shark Island dramatises the fatal shooting of Abraham Lincoln (Frank McGlynn, Sr.) and the subsequent visit by the assassin John Wilkes Booth (Francis McDonald) to Dr. Samuel Mudd's house to fix his broken leg. Unaware of Booth's treason, Mudd is later arrested - narrowly escaping execution after a one-sided military trial - and sentenced to a life of hard labour at Fort Jefferson in Dry Tortugas (an infamous prison in the Gulf of Mexico surrounded by shark-infested waters). Featuring John Carradine as a sadistic prison guard, The Prisoner of Shark Island is a tautly scripted, vividly directed examination of Dr. Mudd's struggle to overcome inhuman justice. Nominated for Best Picture by the American National Board of Review, the film has been rarely screened over recent decades.
