It's Britain, 1953. Upon his return to work following a heart attack, irrepressible barrister Sir Wilfrid Robarts, known as a barrister for the hopeless, takes on a murder case, much to the exasperation of his medical team, led by his overly regulated private nurse, Miss Plimsoll, who tries her hardest to ensure that he not return to his hard living ways - including excessive cigar smoking and drinking - while he takes his medication and gets his much needed rest. That case is defending American war veteran Leonard Vole, a poor, out of work, struggling inventor who is accused of murdering his fifty-six year old lonely and wealthy widowed acquaintance, Emily French. The initial evidence is circumstantial but points to Leonard as the murderer. Despite being happily married to East German former beer hall performer Christine Vole, he fostered that friendship with Mrs. French in the hopes that she would finance one of his many inventions to the tune of a few hundred pounds. It thus does not help his case when it is learned that Mrs. French changed her will prior to her murder with Leonard being the primary beneficiary of a £80,000 estate. Leonard states that he knew nothing about the will. Christine is apparently the only alibi Leonard has to his whereabouts at the time of the murder. The usual methods Sir Wilfrid uses to test his clients' guilt or innocence leads to him believing that Leonard is indeed innocent. As the trial progresses, the prosecution calls a surprise witness, one that could place a nail in the coffin of Sir Wilfrid's planned line of defense. As Sir Wilfrid gets deeper and deeper into the case, something doesn't quite sit right with him, although he doesn't know what it is. The primary questions become how far Sir Wilfrid will go to obtain evidence to acquit Leonard, and if he will ever discover why he feels that there is something odd about the case.
意想不到的结尾
不是 她处决了他
一个不同寻常的女人和一位值得尊敬的律师。力荐！看片时很想知道编剧创作并完成电影的剧本的。编剧太神了！这感觉让我开始遥想起之前看一部电影时对剧本也疯狂着迷但电影名字我忘了。and
台词太厉害了
精彩，意想不到的反转
反转十足精彩，但是老爵士的辩护风格有着先入为主的危险：“经验”和“老道”，其实并不能成为辨识所谓“真相”的保障。真相很多时候是不可知的，法庭只不过是人们努力尝试从两个方向逼近那个答案的场所而已。如果心中已经预设了结论，则会在无形中扼杀推导过程中的诸多可能性，也容易被自己想要相信的“证据”所诱骗。像爵士身边那位年轻一些的精英律师一样，不对“真相”做任何断言，始终保持审慎和开放的态度，其实是更加尊重法律精神的体现
反转反转再反转！台词太好了！
几近完美
