Why does everyone doubt Uncle Tie?

Sydnie 2022-03-17 08:01:01

It's okay, court dramas generally love court battles. I don't know why this film gave up this kind of confrontation. In addition, if it was really intentional murder, why did the heroine not guard against Uncle Tie after first awakening from a coma? She can track it down, sue directly, and even revise her will. Therefore, on the other hand, why does everyone conclude that it is Uncle Tie? In addition, if the murder is intentional, Uncle Tie's actions such as stopping the maid's rescue by the bed will definitely bring him a lot of trouble. If Uncle Tie did it intentionally, he must not be able to dig such an obvious hole for himself!

    Too many legal movies, a little tired, Irons

    I came here because of Jeremy Irons' "Fengdi" work (well, it's mainly to see him), but I was attracted by the story adapted from the real event, and the narrative technique of the film is also very good. Suspenseful sensation Keep it to the end---did Claus kill Sunny? Who's the murderer? Like the ending of reality, the film can't give an answer. It still revolves around the criticism of the legal system and the perspectives of different parties to play a "blindfolding game" (of course, this may be Alan Dershowitz's original issue). Interestingly, Alan Dershowitz's involvement in Epstein's sex trafficking scandal a few years later, combined with the mysterious suicide of his first wife, is thought-provoking.

Reversal of Fortune quotes

  • Minnie: Yeah, okay, so, someone's got to defend Claus. But why you, why us?

    Alan Dershowitz: Look, you're my student, you, you have a choice. You don't have to do anything you don't want to do; that is your choice. The reason *I* take cases - and here I'm unlike most other lawyers, who are not professors and therefore have to make a living - I take cases because I get pissed off. And I am pissed off here. The family hired a private prosecutor: unacceptable! They conducted a private search! Now if we let them get away with that, rich people won't go to the cops any more. You know what they're going to do? They're going to get their own lawyers to collect evidence - and then they are going to choose which evidence they feel like passing on to the DA. And the next victim isn't going to be rich, like von Bülow - but it's going to be some poor schnook in Detroit who can't afford, or who can't find, a decent lawyer.

  • Raj: I agree von Bülow is guilty, but then, that's the fun - that's the challenge.

    Alan Dershowitz: Now THERE is a lawyer.
