In a bravura performance, Broderick Crawford won the 1949
Academy Award for Best Actor with his stunning portrayal of
bullheaded backwoods lawyer Willie Stark in the powerful drama
about political and personal corruption.

A somber but realistic chronicle of raw, brutal power in force,
All The King's Men is based on Robert Penn Warren's Pulitzer
Prize-winning novel of the same name. It was brought to the
screen in 1949 by producer Robert Rossen, who also wrote the
screenplay and directed the film. The story was inspired by
the rise and fall of southern bigwig Huey Pierce Long - the
infamous "Kingfish" who was Louisiana's governor and one time
senator. All The King's Men remains a hallmark political film
with superb performances throughout, John Ireland garnered a
Best Supporting Actor Oscar nomination for his role as Stark's
tortured right-hand man, while Mercedes McCambridge won an
Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress as Sadie Burke,
Stark's callous conniving political aide. In addition, the
film won an Academy Award for Best Picture, along with
nominations for Directing, Writing and Film Editing.
