About The Man Who Dared
An "imaginative biography" of Anton Cermak, mayor of Chicago who was killed in the line of fire during an assassination attempt on President-elect Franklin D. Roosevelt in Miami on February 15, 1933.
Directed by Hamilton MacFadden, The Man Who Dared leans on a strong ensemble — Preston Foster, Zita Johann, Joan Marsh — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1933.
