Ragtime (DVD)

NOMINATED FOR 8 OSCARS

E.L. Doctorow's epic chronicle of early 20th-century America has been transformed by Milos Forman into a grand film teeming with events. Through the crowds of the slums and the luxurious life of high society, we end up with Coalhouse Walker, a ragtime pianist on his way up in life. Proudly driving his shiny new Model T Ford, he is stopped by a mob of white men and subjected to their violent hatred. Walker struggles to bring the men to justice, and his long struggle is followed by an explosion of violence and terror...

With a budget equivalent to half a billion kronor in today's currency, RAGTIME was one of the most expensive films ever made. Howard E. Rollins Jr. was nominated for an Oscar for his leading role, and equally acclaimed was film legend James Cagney (d. 81), who made his comeback here after twenty years of silence.
