Friday Night Flix

Inherit the Wind (Black and White, 1960) Where did we come from? Were we created or did we evolve? That’s exactly the question that Spencer Tracy and Fredric March argue in a hot Tennessee courtroom. The story, based on the 1925 Scopes “monkey” Trial, was originally written as a play in 1955 as a means to discuss the wave of McCarthyism that gripped the country. Tracy and March’s characters are loosely based on the real life historical figures of Clarence Darrow and William Jennings Bryan… Not to be missed.
