The script was really good but the acting really made it. It was nominated for several Oscars but the same year of "Ben Hur".

It did take Best Soundtrack, which was done by Duke Ellington. The main character the defendant's attorney played by Jimmy Stewart was a huge jazz fan, at the time of racial and socal strife as the country was addressing segregation and other inequities. Kinda poetic.

The ending is anti climatic, but lots of movies of the 50s were similar. Even now courtroom dramas in the movies tend to end similarly.

The best part of the movie is definitely Jimmy Stewart. Worth the watch.
