Tony Randall as Henry Drummond/Clarence Darrow and Charles Durning as Matthew Harrison Brady/William Jennings Bryan. Electrifying!

Put it on the Netflix cue months ago. And this is the first time I've ever seen it mentioned here. Trippy.

very well done and acted with a good message.. a bit like "To Kill a Mockingbird".

the part of henry drummond was play on broadway by tony randall and in the 1999 movie by jack lemmon.

the part of felix unger, of course, was also played by both actors; randall in the tv version and lemmon in the movie.
