30. "Judgment at Nuremburg" (1961)
World War II Movie Night - A podcast by World War II Movie Night - Fridays
World War II Movie Night gets legal with one of the most famous courtroom dramas of all time. The high-profile trials of Nuremburg are long over when retired American Judge Haywood (Spencer Tracy) comes to the town to preside over a trail of ex-judges, including the cagey Janning (Burt Lancaster). Haywood and others are surprised by the forceful, effective defense of Hans Rolfe (Maximillian Schell). With all these disparate factors set to collide, what will come out, both in the courtroom and outside of it? The three actors head an absurdly good ensemble cast in this Library of Congress selection... asides include good hair and, again, "The Man in the High Castle."
