My fave Paul Newman flick.

One of my favorite court dramas of all time.
With almost a seasoned ease, Paul portrays a disheveled, aging, never-has-been, malpractice lawyer who finds within himself the humanity which never really had a chance to surface due to the layered weight of his chronic alcoholism. The movie & Newman's performance sets up very well the desolation & loneliness that the main character moves his l... read more

Sidney Lumet, as a director, has chosen projects which shake the tree of moral dilemmas, that looms large overhead and wait for the fruit to fall on our head, giving us something to shout (Eureka!) about.

Here, is a broken man, Paul Newman. Once a shining star, now lays broken. Not by his own doing, but brought down by the crooked system. Now fate allows him a second chance. He is slo... read more

(MU) Lumet es muy contemporáneo para ser un clásico y muy viejo como para brillar entre las estrelllas trendy. Pero tiene sorpresas nunca bien ponderadas como esta historia de decadencia venida a más, de redención en los pliegues del drama de corte, con sorpresas de última hora, fracasos y descepciones

Pop Culture Phenomenon Films: 80’s (1441 movies items)

" Based on the novel, by Barry Reed, Frank Galvin is a down-on-his-luck lawyer and reduced to drinking and ambulance chasing, when a former associate reminds him of his obligations in a medical malpractice suit by serving it to Galvin on a silver platter—all parties are willing to settle out of court. Blundering his way through the preliminaries, Galvin suddenly realizes that the case should actually go to court—to punish the guilty, to get a decent settlement for his clients… and to res"
