This Alfred Hitchcock courtroom drama is reputed to be dreadful, but it isn't that bad; in fact, it's really quite good! Gregory Peck stars as a lawyer hired to defend Mrs. Paradine, a woman accused of killing her husband. It's rather difficult defending her because she won't even tell her own lawyer the details of what she saw the day her husband died. Hitchcock has made better movies; this one's only for his fans.
