The Brotherhood of the Bell

I agree with everyone who has posted here that the film is quite excellent, and it is a shame that it is so little seen today. I do remember when it was still in reruns occasionally, then it dropped from view. This led to militia groups and other conspiracy theorists claiming that the real Powers That Be (Whether it's Skull and Bones or whoever) had suppressed it. Militia groups have been selling bootlegs for years. But let's not get overly paranoid. That fact is, quite a few TV movies from that same era have disappeared from view. That BROTHERHOOD OF THE BELL is among them does not necessarily denote a conspiracy. Now, if this entire IMDb page on the film suddenly disappears, then I might become a believer! But back to the original point, if you can find a copy of the film, I strongly recommend it as well. Don't waste your time with the more recent SKULLS series.

I saw this in 1970 when it was on TV and it was the beginning of a long fascination with movies of this ilk. The Brotherhood of the Bell paved the way for follow-up films like "The Star Chamber" and "Skulls". I've always wondered if there wasn't some hidden group that has this kind of control, but I know that I've never been recruited (darn it). Personally, I think Glenn Ford should have just carried out his task and put it behind him - but then I guess if he had done that there wouldn't have been a movie. The fact that this theme has appeared in several films convinces me that there must be a "brotherhood" that runs government and finance. But then I've always felt that there are secrets lurking away from the public at Area 51 too.

I thoroughly enjoyed "The Brotherhood of the Bell" when I saw it on TV in the Fall of 1970. I have thought about it many times over the years. If anyone knows where I may obtain a copy or when I may view it on TV, etc., please post the information. I would very much like to view this movie again just to verify that it really is as good as I remember it. The movie is about a secret fraternity and the life thrust upon one of its members. Once in the fraternity, there seems to be no way out. But why would one want out of the good life? It is the most intense drama I can remember. The movie rivals the Janet Leigh shower scene in "Psycho". It definitely weaves a plausible scenario with the viewer considering what the next move will be. The director plays with your emotions as easily as someone might play the piano. Oh, yes! I would love to see this movie again!

I have always wanted to see it again .. own a copy. Cannot find it anywhere. It was really frightening ... and superbly done. If you remember the political atmosphere of the 60's and 70's, it was generally suspected that there were sinister, behind the scenes forces at work on a National if not Global scale. I believe that such groups as the John Birch Society drew in lot of followers during this period because of this suspicion. It's almost like there was a conspiracy to keep this movie from being seen again! Spooky! Someone told me that copies were being sold or given out to people that "made a contribution" to some sort of organization. And that the organization was operated by Glen Ford himself ... or his son! Spooky!

I hadn't seen this movie since it was first aired on TV in the early '70s; 30 years later, it is much better than what I recalled. Glenn Ford is at his very best; actually, all of the actors are really great. The script as well as the photography are first class. In an era where we all look for enemies outside North America, it is appropriate to remind ourselves that there might be enemies within. I wish WB would release this movie on DVD.

Saw this years ago and was blowed away. Really pertinent today because of the controversy over Skull and Bones and the Bilderburgers and the Carlyle Group. There are millions of Americans who think our president is just the puppet of the real movers. This movie explores the theme of a small group of people in the shadows who run American and will kill anyone who gets in their way. If you're interested in this stuff, check out the books by David icke. He really goes into left field by claiming the world is run by extraterrestrial lizards!!!! I can't accept that, but he does a great job of arguing that people like bush and clinton are corrupt tools of the psychopaths who really run the world.

I thought I was the only person who ever saw this film. I've been asking people for years about it and no one I asked had ever heard of it. The recent film 'The Skulls' made me renew my search for some evidence of its existence. At last! It has been a long time since I've seen it but I remember it really blew me away when I did. It was so believable it was spookey. I wish it could be revived on tape or something. What happens to great old TV movies?? If you ever see it listed on late nite TV / STAY UP and WATCH IT!!!!!!!!!

Absolutely, the finest of all "secret society" plots, with the great Glenn Ford as protagonist par excellance, and a wicked Dean Jagger -- Oh Boy, Oh Boy, Oh Boy! Why is this not in video? Probably not for some sinister reason -- but a crime nonetheless!!!
