Absolutely brilliant film based on the Monkey Scopes Trial and the teaching of Evolution in the schools of America. Did God create humans as we are or did we get to our present state by a series of evolution, right from the monkey up? Lawyers Spencer is pro evolution; Frederic March believes in the teachings of the Bible. The long, hot, court case during a summer heat wave heats up the proceedings to fever pitch. The battles are long and hard both pro and con! It's a fabulous re-enactment on what went on in the era of the twenties. A film that will reel you in hook, line and sinker. It's that good.
