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 inteIlectual superiority. Sadistic bully Artie Straus (Bradford Dillman) and timid introvert Judd Steiner (Dean StockweIl) commit the 'perfect crime', but their arrogance Ieads to their arrest. LooseIy based on the notorious 1924 murder triaI of thriIl-kilIers LeopoId and Loeb, this outstanding fiIm also features cinema legend Orson Welles as the criminaI defence lawyer who takes on their case.
