Paul Newman,(Frank Galvin), supported by a very strong cast with performances that make this movie a classic courtroom case win. James Mason as the defendant's lawyer, (Ed Concannon), Charlotte Rampling as (Laura), the mole for Concannon who becomes a Galvin believer and the rest of the cast were excellent. Why Newman did not receive the Oscar for his performance must have been a Hollywood political decision among those who voted. His work in this movie outshines "The Color of Money" where the voters gave him the Oscar to make up for a bad call in "The Verdict". Engaging and cerebral, this movie is to viewed over and over again.
