A hotshot lawyer defends a shy kid accused of murdering a Chicago priest. Great on so many levels. One of Richard Gere's best. Standing most excellently toe to toe with him is Laura Linney. Beautifully crafted courtroom thriller. Edward Norton won a truckload of awards for his part, and if you want to see a primo example of Norton's talent, this is the one to see. Also a nice visit by Steven Bauer and the always spot-on John Mahoney. One of the best endings ever. With Alfre Woodard as the Judge and Frances McDormand as the psychiatrist, you absolutely positively no-way can go wrong with this awesome film.
