    There are no blameless directors, actors and details of the accusation and defense, but there are some steps in the defense. The protagonist's halo is too big. The hotel girl's step is particularly unreasonable. The arrogant and strong prosecutor has cited many loopholes, but I feel completely planted in the male protagonist, Mr. Good + Weak. Wife + Warrior Defendant is on the emotional card, but Scott is so arrogant and I'm on the side of the prosecution~ Young Ben looks so...

    I want to say seriously, this film should remove the [action] from the genre and replace it with [comedy]. Whether it is the appearance of the characters from all parties at the beginning or the stage of the court trial and evidence collection, especially the detailed court trial process, there is a strong sense of "I'm just joking in a serious manner, can't you see it~"? = = This section of underwear is just laughing, so the more serious people are, the easier it is to naturally show bursts of...

    Rashomon in the courtroom, the quality of the film that was pulled out alone is considered a success. The pros and cons of the court debate are very well written. James Stewart plays a lawyer who continues the image of the witty and individual male character in the film noir, and the lines are humorous. There are psychological games everywhere. However, the foreshadowing that the daughter convicted the father exists in the whole movie like a serpentine thread, and in order to bury this...

    8.3/10. ①The male lawyer defends a murderer in court. The specific case is "Husband A murdered tavern owner B, because it is suspected that B raped A's romantic wife". In the end, the male protagonist won the case. The film focuses on the debate itself, without ultimately telling the audience the truth. ②High-level photography (light and shadow/composition) with strong expressiveness; some are silky and graceful in lens movement/scene scheduling, and even some are very trembling at high level,...

    James Stewart's lawyer character is nothing short of charismatic: logically clear, thought provoking, with a bit of the nitty-gritty of a normal human being (and thus all the more endearing), and it's also very humorous! The best part is the lingering sense of doubt, the truth is still unknown at the end, a very good and enjoyable courtroom...

Anatomy of a Murder quotes

  • Paul Biegler: Mr. Paquette, what would you call a man with an insatiable penchant for women?

    Alphonse Paquette: A what?

    Paul Biegler: A penchant... a desire... taste... passion?

    Alphonse Paquette: Well, uh, ladies' man, I guess. Or maybe just a damn fool!

    [laughter in the courtroom]

    Judge Weaver: Just answer the questions, Mr. Paquette. The attorneys will provide the wisecracks.

  • Parnell Emmett McCarthy: [eyeing an empty liquor bottle] You fought this soldier by yourself. You've been drinking alone, Paulie. I don't like that.

    Paul Biegler: Drop the stone, Counsellor. You live in a glass house.

    Parnell Emmett McCarthy: My windows have been busted a long time ago, so I can say what I please.
