Creationism vs Agnosticism? Oh my! A Inherit the Wind (1960) review

Ilana is taking us back to the late 1920s for “Inherit the Wind” 1960, starring Spencer Tracy, Frederic March and Gene Kelly. The Monkey Trial is not so ancient as it may seem! Can we sing enough praises for this latter-day black and white movie? But did they get the costuming right? Was this a dramatization of the historic trial? And just how old-fashioned are these schools of thought?
