Summary
"Attorney Steve Garrett is brought in to defend four enlisted men accused of attacking a 16-year-old girl. But if he's going to prevent their death sentences, he will have to turn the spotlight on the victim, Karin. Already immeasurably traumatized, Karin suddenly finds herself on the witness stand, attempting to justify her actions to Garrett, her stern father and a Town Without Pity."The classic American drama inspired by the famous Scapes "monkey trial" in which a teacher was prosecuted for teaching Darwin's theory of evolution. This version stars Kirk Douglas as prosecutor, Jean Simmons as his wife, Jason Robards as defense attorney, and Darren McGavin as a cynical visiting reporter covering the trial
