Al Pacino finally gets to play the right side of the law or so it seems. Disillusioned lawyer Arthur is hired to defend a judge whom he knows is guilty of the heinous crimes he is being tried for. When a prominent judge on the circuit tries to convince Arthur to play the corrupt game of high-profile law, the trial becomes about the fate of Arthur's soul as much as about his client's future as a free man. A must-see for Pacino fans (he was nominated for an Academy Award for this role) and court room drama fans alike.
