One of Preminger's masterworks and a way ahead of its time classic. Henry Fonda is exceptional and every other actor (in roles large and/or small) is perfect: George Grizzard; Burgess Meredith; Charles Laughton: Walter Pidgeon

Y'all need to add Lew Ayres to the cast list.

Pretty compelling. Ballsy enough tackle the gay issue, but the picture it paints would be enough to send any young closeted gay guy of 1962 right the the ledge of the Brooklyn Bridge.

Ehh. Advise and Consent starts off strong enough but all of the bluster and kicked up dust land pretty quickly in the second act and it was too long. For as great as the ensemble cast is, too many of the characters seemed unnecessary and a lot of them just kind of disappeared. Great acting and wonderful direction, but overall just a pretty flat movie with a few performances to make a difference.
