Selected because of DD & HB in the cast.
Should have found this interesting because it deals with race relations both on a personal and a political level. But it is very slow paced, more of a soap opera than a social statement. Perhaps if Stanley Kramer had made it...
I liked the way JW got into JM's mind, trying to get him to confess. JW is great at this sort of role, like the cops in To Catch a Thief ('55) or Dial M for Murder ('54).
