No Highway in the Sky is an interesting flick, too.

Vertigo is justifiably famous.

But Anatomy is a bit of a gem as well. The acting is extraordinary. Plus, the judge is played by Joseph Welch who is justifiably famous for taking down Joseph McCarthy with the words, "At long last, have you no decency." That Joseph Welch. Duke Ellington plays a role, too, and wrote and performed the music. The supporting cast is incredible with Arthur O'Connell and Eve Arden as stand-outs.

Highly recommended.
