This Blu-ray - release is packed with compelling special features including on-camera interviews with Oscar winner Paul Newman and legendary director Sidney Lumet and is the perfect way to experience "one of the finest courtroom movies ever made" (New York)!
Frank Galvin (Newman) is a boozy washed-up attorney with a losing streak a mile long. so when he`s handed a lucrative out-of-court settlement, everyone expects him to take the money and run. But Frank is tired of running. In a desperate bid to reclaim his self-respect, he recklessly brings the case to court - only to discover that if finding the whole truth is a little like trial and error, then finding real justice is a lot like trial by fire.
Avocat déchu et alcoolique, Frank Galvin racole ses clients dans les salons funéraires jusqu`au jour où il accepte de travailler sur l`affaire Deborah Ann Kaye, une jeune femme qui, victime d`un erreur médicale, est plongée dans un profond coma. Ce dossier, qui risque de provoquer un scandale et de nuire la réputation de l`hôpital, va être pour Frank l`occasion de retrouver sa dignité... ou de la perdre définitivement.
