I learned something interesting watching Anatomy of a Murder tonight.

The judge was played by Joseph Welch,

the same Joseph Welch that shut up Joe McCarthy.

(The good stuff starts at 6:00)

It was the only movie he ever made.

1. interesting!

I love factoids like this that add something to something you already love.

I LOVE the graphics for that movie. I LOVE the music for that movie. I LOVE Lee Remick's slutty, pointy-bra-wearing character.

I also love this genre and the beautiful b&w.

2. I wonder if Scott was channeling McCarthy in that last cross-examination.
