Wednesday, February 9, 2022
Movie Mill, 7:30 p.m.
$5 students/youth | $8 adults
Partially fictionalizing the 1925 Scopes “Monkey Trial” that pitted “Old Time Religion” against modernity and the teaching of evolution, Inherit the Wind speaks to wider issues of freedom of speech and remains a controversial and sometimes misunderstood film that figures in current arguments between science and faith.
Winner of the 1960 Berlin International Film Festival awards for Best Actor (Fredric March) & Best Feature Suitable for Young People
“Standing alongside To Kill a Mockingbird and Twelve Angry Men, Inherit the Wind is a stunningly clear snapshot of the past, present and future of American political discourse.”
- Christopher Machell, Cinevue
Rated PG
