About this product

Product Information

Director Preminger thrives in tense legal showdowns and this is perhaps his best, mostly for Stewart's cagey performance as a deceptively wily small-town lawyer. The sensationalist trial revolves around an army lieutenant who shoots a bar owner for allegedly raping his wife, an ugly crime in which no one is wholly guilty or innocent. Based on Robert Travers' novel. Score (and onscreen appearance) by Duke Ellington. Academy Award Nominations: 7, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor--James Stewart, Best (Adapted) Screenplay.

A challenging film with intrigue thrown in for good measure
James Stewart, a name I have yet to see associated with a BAD picture. There might be one, but I haven't seen it. This was an engaging trial scene and well worth what I paid for it. I prefer color, but I knew it was B&W when I ordered it, so I still rate it five stars. It has an ending you can place anywhere you want to, but the ending I had to conclude was not the one I would have preferred. I would recommend this film if you like intrigue.

A wonderful classic
Having camped a few times recently in the “trailer Park” Featured in this movie and enjoyed the lumberjack tavern and The Inn both while been there, this movie was a blast to watch.
