          Filmed on location as well. Lots of the filming locations still exist. I absolutely love that film.

                I know we've had this conversation a time or two already, but despite it being a "boring courtroom drama," it's not boring.

                Maybe knowing exactly where those filming locations are it means a little more to me, but it's just a well done film. The dialog is brilliantly written.

                • I don't know anything about the locations and I think it's brilliant. Watching Duke Ellington on film is great, too, and the judge is a real judge, made famous for spanking Tailgunner Joe.

                  I've always wished Lee Remick was more to look at, given the part (was Carroll Baker not available?), but her acting is outstanding.

                    woman sports agent gets a bump on the head and can now hear men’s thoughts. Oh and she is black. Can’t believe a studio approved this but it’s somewhat amusing and mookie enjoyed it.

                      It’s a sequel to What Women Want, starring Mel Gibson. Same premise, genders reversed.

                        Chapelle had a good spoof on this before it was an actual movie.

                          Pretty sure every Jack Lemon 50s movie is the same premise.

                              The gov't buildings in the UP, especially the Keweenaw are spectacular. Some of the great midwestern buildings of that era. Calumet especially. Just beautiful. The Keweenaw must have been an absolutely spectacular place to be rich at the peak of the copper era. Just an unreal amount of money flowed in and out of that area.

                                It's my home. I wouldn't call it beautiful, but the history is easily appreciated. And since we're in the movie thread, "Children of the Night" was a vampire flick partially filmed here when I was in high school and features St. Anne's church, which we walk past a couple days a week. Although I am always more impressed by St. Paul's being more awe-inspiring. There are, I think, seven immigrant-built churches within sight of each other which all sermonized in their own languages.
                                And the money that flowed through... it's a tribute to capitalism and wealth concentration; the towns were left empty and broke when the Montana/AZ mines opened, the $ went to Boston, and the memory of the copper boom is a memory of the first fits and starts of an organized labor movement, a lot of dead workers and a few dead communists, and a lake full of PCBs and tumor-crippled fish.
                                And recently, the absent owners of some of these buildings are getting sued for not cleaning up the rubble when the snow caves them in.
