Stanley Kramer's film is based on a television play by Abby Mann.
Over ten years after the end of World War Two, judge Dan Haywood
(Spencer Tracey) is sent to Germany to preside over the prosecution
of Nazis, including Ernst Janning (Burt Lancaster). While the
prosecuting attorney bases his case on the war crimes and
atrocities committed by those on trial, defence counsel Hans Rolfe
(Maximillian Schell) claims that to try Nazi officers for simply
obeying Hitler's commands is equivalent to judging all Germany.

Collection of four musicals starring Fred Astaire. In 'Easter
Parade' (1948) Astaire plays Don Hewes, one half of a dance team
who is ditched by his partner. Deciding he can make a star out of
anyone he wants, Don chooses lowly chorus girl Hannah Brown (Judy
Garland) as his new partner. Songs include 'Steppin' Out With My
Baby' and 'A Couple of Swells'. In 'Broadway Melody of 1940' (1940)
Johnny Brett (Astaire) and King Shaw (George Murphy) are a
struggling dance duo. When Broadway producer Bob Casey (Frank
Morgan) discovers Johnny's talent he is eager to employ him for his
new show alongside star Clare Bennett (Eleanor Powell) but,
masquerading as Johnny, it is King who gets the part. When King is
unable to perform on opening night, however, Johnny gets his chance
on the big stage. Songs include 'I've Got My Eyes On You' and
'Begin the Beguine'. In Francis Ford Coppola's first big-budget
feature, 'Finian's Rainbow' (1968), Astaire stars as simple-minded
Irishman Finian McLonergan. Fleeing to America with a stolen crock
of gold, he is pursued by Og (Tommy Steele), a leprechaun who is
the rightful owner of the treasure. Songs include 'Old Devil Moon'
and 'If This Isn't Love'. In 'The Band Wagon' (1953) has-been movie
actor Tony Hunter (Astaire) agrees to take part in a Broadway show,
playing opposite ballerina Gabrielle Gerard (Cyd Charisse). The
stars fear they cannot work together, but the show's success is
under a bigger threat from its pretentious musical director (Jack
Buchanan), who turns a simple story into an overblown monster. When
opening night is a flop, it is up to the cast to save the show.
Songs include 'That's Entertainment' and 'Dancing in the Dark'.
