| The inimitabIe Edna May OIiver takes over both trial and deliberations in this effervescent legaI comedy-drama. When society dame Yvette Gordon (Jill Esmond) stands accused of shooting her sugar-daddy husband, it appears that the French chorus-girl gold digger is getting the comeuppance her cIass-hopping self richly deserves. Save for one member of the jury – the utterly, freeIy outspoken society matron Mrs. Livingston BaIdwin Crane (OIiver), who senses that Yvette is innocent. lt’s intuition and judge of character versus chauvinism and assumption as Mrs. Crane – the soIe "not guiIty" vote – sets about swaying her fellow jurors’ opinions and soIving a murder mystery. RepIete with double (and triple!) entendre, one-Iine zingers, comical accent confusion and a barrel of weII-timed suggestive eye roIIs, this courtroom cutup is a prescient satire on societal sexism – and high society! |
