keeping you in the dark:
ANATOMY OF A MURDER
director Otto Preminger, 1955
The one thing I never noticed till right now is how the title background gets darker and darker to complete black.
Duke Ellington is merely the greatest musician of the twentieth century;
the problem with his music for sound-tracks is, it's too interesting.
Joseph N. Welch was rather famous for his role in ending Joseph McCarthy's anti-communist hysteria.
some quotes:
"Until this moment, Senator, I think I never really gauged your cruelty or your recklessness."
"I like to think I am a gentle man, but your forgiveness has to come from someone other than me."
"Have you no sense of decency, sir, at long last? Have you no sense of decency?"
Footnote: it was Joseph N. Welch who was the Republican here
