Theodore P Dec 10, 2018 Cass Timberlane is a decent film. It is about Judge Cass Timberlane who marries a girl from the wrong side of the tracks.Spencer Tracy and Lana Turner give good performances. The screenplay is a little slow in places. George Sidney did an alright job directing this movie. I liked this motion picture because of the drama and romance. See more
