BLB Room 285

Harrison Ford plays prosecutor R.K. "Rusty" Sabich. When his colleague and mistress, deputy prosecutor Carolyn Polhemus, is found murdered, Sabich first leads the investigation, then finds himself charged with the crime.

Peter Travers of Rolling Stone writes, Ford "is astonishingly fine in a performance of controlled intensity" in this film adaptation of Turow's "novel that was equal parts whodunit, courtroom drama, warped love story and insightful take on the limits of the legal system."

Free popcorn and pop provided!
