Judgment at Nuremberg depicts a fictionalized version of the Judges’ Trial of 1947, one of the twelve Nuremberg Military Tribunals conducted under the auspices of the U.S. military in the aftermath of World War II. Stanley Kramer’s 1961 film about the trial of 16 Nazi jurists and lawyers is based on a courtroom drama written by Abby Mann. It featured some of the best actors working in Hollywood at the time, including Spencer Tracy, Burt Lancaster, Richard Widmark, Werner Klemperer, Marlene Dietrich, Judy Garland, William Shatner, Montgomery Clift, and an Oscar winning performance by Maximilian Schell. The film won three Academy Awards in total and was nominated in nine more categories.

Both the theatrical release posters and the cover of Ernest Gold’s soundtrack feature the compressed Inserat-Grotesk as the primary typeface.
