Good movie and for it's time hot stuff.

Interesting, and ultimately quite gripping, drama. A young lawyer, Tony Lawrence (played by Paul Newman), embarks on a successful legal career in Philadelphia. He steadily climbs the social and corporate ladder, though with much personal baggage and bitterness. It's the last few scenes of this movie that make it so good. It was fine, but not fantastic, before. We see Paul Newman's character's trials, tribulations and success. It is interesting, but not overly engaging. However, the engagement factor is ratcheted up several notches toward the end, when he defends his friend in court. The story changes from a fairly standard drama to a very intriguing courtroom drama. Solid work by Paul Newman in the lead role. Good support from Robert Vaughn, Barbara Rush, Brian Keith and a host of others. Vaughn got a Best Supporting Actor Oscar nomination for his efforts, the only Oscar nomination in his career.

This melodrama from the 50's is a great showcase for some of the actors including paul newman and robert vaughn. The story is real engaging and what these characters goes through is a bit soap opera-ish but you can't help but watch.

This was a pretty good movie. It's a nicely paced story with great acting. Paul Newman has to be one of the best looking actors ever so any movie with him in it is worth watching. It was interesting seeing the development of the main character, Tony, but I really enjoyed the courtroom scenes. I wish that part of the story had been more developed. The impetuousness of Joan was a little irritating, especially in light of how it turned Tony into a self-centered jerk. His redemption and their reconciliation put a nice end to the movie.

Finally came out on DVD recently, and it's just as great as I hoped. Paul Newman rocks my socks off. If you're a fan of Newman or movies about lawyers, I recommend checking it out.
