1959, 154 minutes, Rated M
A small town lawyer is pitted against a hardened big-city prosecutor in the case of a lifetime, when an army lieutenant kills his wife's rapist. Is it cold-blooded first degree murder, manslaughter or temporary insanity?
With superb performances by co-stars Lee Remick, Ben Gazzara, George C Scott and featuring an award-winning score by the inimitable Duke Ellington, Anatomy Of A Murder was nominated for 7 Academy Awards (1959 - including Best Picture, Actor, Supporting Actor(s), Screenplay Adaptation, Cinematography and Editing) - and is considered by many to be the greatest courtroom drama ever made.
