A sombre but realistic chronicle of raw, brutal power in force, the story was inspired by the rise and fall of a corrupt politician, Huey Pierce Long, whose greed and lust for power proved his downfall. Broderick Crawford won the 1949 Academy Award for his stunning portrayal of bull headed, backwoods lawyer Willie Stark, in this powerful drama about political and personal corruption.
