The Story of Mankind

During a cosmic courtroom drama in which the fate of the Earth hangs in the balance, the Devil (Vincent Price) and the Spirit of Man (Ronald Colman) argue about the nobility of the human race. Brought into evidence are the deeds of Nero (Peter Lorre), Joan of Arc (Hedy Lamarr), Queen Elizabeth I (Agnes Moorehead), Napoleon (Dennis Hopper), and many others. Director/co-writer Irwin Allen's wildly strange film co-stars Groucho, Harpo, and Chico Marx, Cedric Hardwicke, Virginia Mayo, John Carradine, and more. 100 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono.
