Orson Welles stars in this 1950s crime drama based on the novel by
Meyer Levin, which in turn is based on a real legal case that took
place in 1920s Chicago. Two wealthy law students, Judd Steiner
(Dean Stockwell) and Arthur Strauss (Bradford Dillman), decide that
they can get away with committing the perfect murder. They kidnap
and kill the teenage son of a millionaire, but a pair of spectacles
left at the crime scene leads to them being identified as the
murderers. Their families hire America's top lawyer Jonathan Wilk
(Welles) - a known opponent of the death penalty - to defend them
in their trial, and Wilk goes on to make American legal history by
successfully arguing in favour of a life sentence rather than the
pair's execution.
