Moving from YMMV.Ace In The Hole. Vindicated By History from Amused Troper Guy. Tear Jerker from theladyvanishes, Award Snub by Amuck Cricetine, Alternate Character Interpretation by Destron
Added DiffLines:
* AlternateCharacterInterpretation: While his good nature is probably intended to be taken at face value, one wonders if Leo Minosa's really as saintly as he comes across.
* AwardSnub: It received an UsefulNotes/AcademyAward nomination for Best Story and Screenplay, but it wasn't nominated for Best Picture, Director or Actor.
* TearJerker: Leo's parents are the only ones sincerely devastated by his predicament; Leo's mother is shown having to leave the diner to handle her emotions and Leo's father says that he doesn't care if the tourists leave, all he wants is his son.
* VindicatedByHistory: Audiences and critics were originally turned off by the movie's extreme cynicism about news reporters and police officers. Now the movie is a well-regarded part of Creator/RogerEbert's Great Movies list and Creator/TheCriterionCollection.
