This film should be on top of the bottom 100 list. The cards may have been cute but this movie is not, it can only aspire to be merely disgusting. Anthony Newley must have really needed the money. Who's bright idea was it to make this film anyway? Probably some beancounter without an ounce of artistic integrity who saw how well the cards were selling.

My , My, what can happen when a little girl turns up missing. A 5 year old black girl in 1951. This film shows just how easily things can get out of control when a white man is accused of abducting her. This film is nearly fifty years old and it makes one wonder just how far have we really come in those fifty years? A few years after this film was made, another called To Kill A Mockingbird came out on a similar subject. That one is considered a classic while The Well has been all but forgotten. It really is a shame because the Well is every bit as good.
