88/100. A simple film, it doesn't have a big budget, no big names involved. And it shows what you can do with brilliant character development, superb writing and a director who knows how to use it. It's a powerful story, just as poignant today as it was in 1956, and just as pertinent. The acting is excellent, from everyone. Van Heflin is well cast, Ed Begley is fantastic, Beatrice Straight and George Macready as well, but it's Elizabeth Wilson as the secretary that gives the best performance in the film. She is real and fully convincing. You get so involved with the characters and you care about them. The pacing is perfect. A superb study of people, morals and relationships. It's not a film you can easily forget.

Great drama about workplace politics. Everett Sloane is unremitting as the vicious boss who hounds his subordinate (Ed Begley) to force him to resign. Van Heflin's character is caught in the middle, and Beatrice Straight is excellent as his wife, a sort of 50s version of Lady Macbeth. Taut script by Rod Serling.

The main draw remains Serling, whose story seems every bit as relevant-indeed, more so-today. There is efficiency but also music in his theatrical language... [Blu-ray]

Doesn't seem like this movie has aged a bit. The story is just as relevant today, as it was then. Maybe even more so...
