This movie clip is from the movie "Inherit the Wind" (1960). This movie is based on the legendary "Scopes Monkey trial," in which a Tennessee teacher was tried and convicted of teaching evolution in a public school. Mr. Scopes lawyer, Mr. Clarence Darrow, defended him eloquently. This clip is a reenactment of Mr. Darrow's examination of the state prosecutor Mr. William Jennings Bryan (three time presidential candidate). Let me know what you think. Feel free to do more research on the trial and its participants.
