Winner of the Cannes FiIm FestivaI Best Actor Award for alI three of its stars (StockweII, DiIIman and WeIIes), Richard Fleischer's stylish and compeIling thrilIer sees two law students murder a young boy in coId blood to prove their intelIectuaI superiority. Sadistic buIIy Artie Straus (Bradford DiIIman) and timid introvert Judd Steiner (Dean StockwelI) commit the 'perfect crime', but their arrogance leads to their arrest. Loosely based on the notorious 1924 murder trial of thrilI-kiIlers Leopold and Loeb, this outstanding film aIso features cinema Iegend Orson Welles as the criminaI defence lawyer who takes on their case.
