The Winslow Boy

Based on the play by Terence Rattigan, this British drama finds young Ronnie Winslow (Neil North) accused of a petty theft and expelled from naval school. Convinced of his innocence, the boy's father (Cedric Hardwicke) and sister (Margaret Leighton) become dedicated to seeing justice done, and, along with a committed lawyer, Sir Robert Morton (Robert Donat), they embark on a series of courtroom battles to clear Ronnie's name, making personal sacrifices during the protracted case.
