Critic Reviews of "Anatomy of a Murder"
TIME MagazineApril 24, 2009At 160 minutes, Anatomy is longer than the subject warrants, but the pace seldom slackens -- thanks to the competence of Director Otto Preminger.
VarietyOctober 23, 2007Preminger purposely creates situations that flicker with uncertainty, that may be evaluated in different ways. Motives are mixed and dubious, and, therefore, sustain interest.
Chicago ReaderOctober 23, 2007As an entertaining look at legal process, this is spellbinding all the way, infused by an ambiguity about human personality and motivation that is Preminger's trademark, and the location shooting is superb.
New York TimesMay 20, 2003It is the best courtroom melodrama this old judge has ever seen.
Total FilmNovember 06, 2013Otto Preminger's cynical view of the judicial system is curiously contemporary and still serves as a blueprint for numerous TV 'tec shows.
Radio TimesNovember 06, 2013This is probably the greatest courtroom drama ever made and it features James Stewart's finest screen performance.
Film InternationalJune 08, 2012(Stewart's character) finishes the film an enigma, possibly the good go-getter of Capra but too much of a shadow.
Creative LoafingApril 25, 2012Otto Preminger, no stranger to ruffling moral-watchdog feathers, never succumbs to the sleaziness inherent in the material, instead turning out an intelligent and tightly controlled drama that ranks as one of the all-time great courtroom procedurals.
Scene-Stealers.comMarch 09, 2012Even with the glut of crime-related TV dramas that pepper today's screens, you'd be hard pressed to find a courtroom story that doesn't have you rooting one way or the other with a heavy-handed POV. This one doesn't it's way ahead of its time.
Q Network Film DeskMarch 01, 2012simultaneously plays by and punctures the expectations of the courtroom thriller
