Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 5/5 --
Stagey yes, but powerful Tracy and March acting + subject matter make this a must see.
Video-Reviewmaster.com
Tolerably gripping in its old-fashioned way, thanks chiefly to old pro performances from Tracy and March as the rival lawyers and ideologists.

Time Out
Rating: B- --
Director Stanley Kramer can't overcome the trepidations of a verbose courtroom drama, so he lets his two actors, Spencer Tracy and Fredric March dominate and go at each other, pretending it's a deep play of ideas.

An all time classic
Atlantic City Weekly
Rating: 4/4 --
Absorbing, if long-winded courtroom drama bolstered by two fine central performances from Tracy and March.

TV Guide
There are some weak and implausible scenes but the film has warmth and excitement, and both Tracy and March are in top form.

Maclean's Magazine
Spencer Tracy does his cuddly curmudgeon turn as Clarence Darrow; it's a lazy, vague performance, but its wit provides the only crack of light in the film's somber, gray overcast.

Product Description:
A teacher is jailed for teaching evolution in the South bringing two legal giants, one an athiest and one a creationist, to battle for more than the teacher's fate in a sweltering southern courtroom. This first rate drama was based on the real "Scopes Trial" in which Clarence Darrow and William Jennings Bryant were the attorneys. Gene Kelly plays H.L. Mencken. Academy Award Nominations: 4, including Best Actor--Spencer Tracy, Best (Adapted) Screenplay.
