Review of Anatomy of a Murder (1959) by Nancy B — 15 Feb 2009
Not one of my favorites. Jimmy Stewart gives a terrific performance, as usual. I find it odd that Oscars seem to go to movies that have arbitrary morals or ethics but are not necessarily as enjoyable as other movies.
This one really dragged until they got to the courtroom about halfway through the movie. Too long of a wait, in my opinion. Hardcore Jimmy Stewart fans will enjoy his performance; not-so-much fans should probably skip it.
