Misstänkt för mord

Presumed Innocent

Namn som Harrison Ford, Brian Dennehy och Raul Julia skänker den åtminstone en liten känsla av trygg storfilm. Jag tycker däremot att den är ganska förutsägbar, trist och formgjuten.

A well-rigged whodunit based on the bestseller by Scott Turrow, that pretends to investigate the various political manipulations that haunt your average district attorney’s office (...) but is in truth about the wages of sin...

Even if you think you know what the solution is, the performances are so clever and the screenplay - by Frank Pierson and director Alan J.Pakula - is so subtle that it could well turn out that your expectations are wrong.

If they gave an Oscar for the year's most claustrophobic film, PRESUMED INNOCENT could have won it in a walk.
