Witness for the Prosecution (1957)

£0.00


Country: US
Technical: bw 114m
Director: Billy Wilder
Cast: Tyrone Power, Charles Laughton, Marlene Dietrich

Synopsis:

A lawyer defends a German woman against a charge of murder which looks pretty airtight.

Review:

Big acting guns for a rare foray by the director into this genre of picture. Cleverly written with a surprise resolution, but an unnecessary flashback to give Dietrich a song to sing in Germany adds to the excessive length.
