It confirms Mr. Kramer as the versatile man he is, full of object lessons for the world; this time a forceful one about the right to think.

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

Stagey yes, but powerful Tracy and March acting + subject matter make this a must see.

Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Rating: 5/5 --
Stanley Kramer's 1960 film is a searing indictment of religious fundamentalism and anti-intellectualism. Inherit the Wind's relevance continues beyond its immediate parallels with McCarthyism.

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.
