Based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning 1959 novel by Allen Drury, Otto Preminger's 1962 film smashed Hollywood taboos about representing homosexuality on screen, in a gripping tale of political scandal and maneuvering set within the highest levels of Washington, DC, power brokering. A fraught Senate confirmation battle over Robert A. Leffingwell's (Henry Fonda) nomination for Secretary of State leads to intraparty squabbling, coverups and blackmail over secrets from the past.
