My favorite actress of all-time is Teresa Wright. She was also wonderful in Shadow Of A Doubt with Joseph Cotton.

"Shadow of a doubt" GREAT sleeper & was one of those movies that was horrible instance of poor casting and ended up being a classic !!!! TREMENDOUS movie ! Joseph Cotton and Peter Fonda probably the two most "underrated actors in history"

Actually the worst casting job in EVER was "Double Indemnity " with Fred MacMurray playing the heavy and he pulled it off to perfection !!!!!

As a matter of fact, Jim, Double Indemnity is on tonight....I loved Edward G. Robinson in that movie....

Not the usual character for him, but like Fred, he pulled it off to perfection.

As for Joesph Cotton, you are correct; very underrated actor. He was perfect as Uncle Charlie.

Peter Fonda wasn't in Shadow of a Doubt, he would have been 3 if he was in it

I know that Isaac...I was comparing him to Joseph Cotton in terms of being under rated actors. Its a matter of taste but I think Joseph Cotton's BEST role was in "The Third Man" with Orson Welles.

I liked Fonda in all his movies except "On Golden Pond" ...ugh ! His best "Sleeper" movie was "The Wrong Man" ...anyway I got a little off topic sorry, but fun stuff anyway

It certainly is right up there. Great cast.

WAY...off topic now but .Not bad for a movie that was filmed almost ENTIRELY on one set , of the 96 minute film only 3 minutes are filmed outside of the jury room !!!! More from Wiki

The film is today viewed as a classic, highly regarded from both a critical and popular viewpoint: Roger Ebert listed it as one of his "Great Movies".The American Film Institute named Juror 8, played by Henry Fonda, 28th in a list of the 50 greatest movie heroes of the 20th century. AFI also named 12 Angry Men the 42nd most inspiring film, the 88th most heart-pounding film and the 87th best film of the past hundred years. The film was also nominated for the 100 movies list in 1998.[18] In June 2008, it revealed AFI's 10 Top 10—the best ten films in ten "classic" American film genres—after polling over 1,500 people from the creative community. 12 Angry Men was acknowledged as the second best film in the courtroom drama genre.
