I can't help thinking that the dogged frequency with which cable station Retroplex is replaying Judgment at Nuremberg indicates someone in the programming department making a political point. Certainly the judicial summary at the end, as delivered by Spencer Tracy, becomes a carrilon descant of peals being rung over the collective heads of America if viewed in the light of current events. It's worth the movie, that speech. That and discovering that William Shatner was ever that young. Good lord.
