Inherit The Wind

When small-town educator Bert Cates breaks the law and is jailed for teaching Darwin's theory of evolution, the stage is set for a dramatic courtroom face-off between prosecution-retained political lion Matthew Anderson Brady (Fredric March) and cagey defense counsel Henry Drummond (Spencer Tracy).

Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English; Subtitles: English; audio commentary; theatrical trailer.
