Rating: 4/4 --
Absorbing, if long-winded courtroom drama bolstered by two fine central performances from Tracy and March.

Rating: 5/5 --
Stagey yes, but powerful Tracy and March acting + subject matter make this a must see.

Rating: 1/5 --
Director Kramer at his most unbearably high-minded and ostentatious
F5 (Wichita, KS)
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
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
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.

Chicago Reader
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.
