Inherit the Wind by Stanley Kramer Story is constantly used in films as a technique to teach the values ​​and morals of events that have occurred. But what's the point of teaching history through movies when they're terribly fictional? In films, the director finds the best scheme to intrigue the audience only by modifying the real event to satisfy their interest. This was true of Stanley Kramer when he turned the story of John Scopes and his "monkey trial" into a film called Inherit the Wind. Kramer knew exactly the "Hollywood story" stereotype that appealed to his audience. The process itself presented a number of conflicts, the main one being evolution versus religion. However there were also a number of tensions throughout the film, including the dispute between the individual and society. The same themes from Inherit the Wind can also be seen in the current "monkey trial" event in Dayton, Tennessee. Sometimes they say that truth is stranger than fiction and according to this film truth is even stronger than fiction. Inherit the Wind ignored the real dramatic moment, which is essential to the actual trial that took place in Dayton, Tennessee. Kramer also expressed his opinion on this process in this film. The truth was so distorted in the film that now the discussion is not individual versus society or evolution versus religion, but history versus fiction. Inherit the Wind is set in the small town of Hillsboro when Bertram Cates (played by), a biology teacher, was thrown in prison for teaching Darwin's theory of evolution. Behind this case were two famous lawyers, Henry Drummond (played by) as the defender and Mathew Harrison Brady (played by), as the prosecutor. Mathew Harrison Brady, who was "voted 3 times for a presidential candidate", was sent to Hillsboro to serve as prosecutor for this trial. As for Cates, a Baltimore Herald reporter named EK Horrbeck willingly provided him with a lawyer named Henry Drummond. Horrbeck was interested in the Cates, expecting to make a lot of money from this big "media" case. The two opposing lawyers, Drummond and Brady, were Kramer's two main characters, both with different opinions on how humans came to earth. Drummond supported the theory of evolution, while Brady supported the theory of creation. In this film, Kramer distorted the facts of the actual trial to make the film more of a drama than a historical documentary.
