“This one is a big winner! Based on the true story of the trial of Claus von Buelow and conviction of murdering his socialite wife and rich heiress, and famed attorney Alan Dershowitzu0026#39;s handling of his appeal. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis movie takes a fascinating topic, a fine book and terrific acting, mixes them all together and bakes a winner. But it is the acting that is supreme.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAnother wonderful performance by Glenn Close (is there nothing she canu0026#39;t play) but an absolute smasher by Jeremy Irons as von Buelow. Iu0026#39;ve seen this movie several times (and read the book) and I still canu0026#39;t make a judgment on whether von Buelow did it. Ironsu0026#39; portrayal of von Buelow is that good.”
