Why don't they make THESE movies anymore?

Apart from being a GREAT courtroom drama(which some people don't think this movie is), this movie is so much FUN and ENTERTAINING to watch.Especially because of the characters of Charles Laughton and Elsa Lanchester. But Tyrone Power and Marlene Dietrich were convincing too in their portrayal of an innocent, afraid for his life man and a disloyal, unloving, poker faced wife respectively.

Some people might say that they predicted the ending half way down the movie but i am not quite sure as to how they predicted the **AC... read the rest.
