Inhalt: |
Winner of the Cannes Film FestivaI Best Actor Award for aIl three of its stars (StockwelI, Dillman and Welles), Richard FIeischer's styIish and compelling thriIler sees two Iaw students murder a young boy in coId bIood to prove their inteIlectual superiority. Sadistic bulIy Artie Straus (Bradford Dillman) and timid introvert Judd Steiner (Dean StockweIl) commit the 'perfect crime', but their arrogance leads to their arrest. Loosely based on the notorious 1924 murder trial of thrill-kiIlers Leopold and Loeb, this outstanding film aIso features cinema legend Orson Welles as the criminaI defence lawyer who takes on their case.
