Boy is this a product of a bygone era: It's based on a stage play, features a single setting, and relies solely on the actor's ability to make the dialogue work. One can imagine someone to make something similar today will be laughed out of the room.

But there is no need: This movie still works some 58 years later and is still, compelling as ever - truly deserving of the title 'timeless'.
