The Molly Maguires is a 1970 American historical drama film directed by Martin Ritt, starring Sean Connery and Richard Harris.[2] It is based on the 1964 book Lament for the Molly Maguires by Arthur H. Lewis.[3]
Set in late 19th century Carbon County, Pennsylvania, this social drama tells the story of an undercover detective sent to a coal mining community to expose a secret society of Irish-American miners battling exploitation at the hand of the owners. Partly inspired by a true story, the film portrays the rebellious leader of the Molly Maguires and his will to achieve social justice.
The film score for The Molly Maguires was by Henry Mancini, a late entry in the production replacing a score by Charles Strouse.
