Quality, quality film making

Rating: 10/10 (4 May 2000)

Finally, a site that recognises quality when it sees it.
Being a big fan of star Fonda and director Lumet isn't a pre-requisite to liking this film; Those two performances are magic, but the expert way the tone is set, then tweeked to wring the emotion from every scene.....perfect
A film that, although made in black and white, has a vibrancy not often matched by todays efforts.
