And Justice For All

Movie / Show Details

Al Pacino stars as Arthur Kirkland, a Baltimore defense attorney navigating the murky waters of a corrupt legal system in this 1979 crime drama directed by Norman Jewison. When a judge Kirkland has clashed with repeatedly is accused of rape, Kirkland finds himself in an impossible position: he must defend the very man whose judicial misconduct has haunted him, including a past case where the judge wrongly sentenced Kirkland’s client on a technicality. The situation grows more complicated when the judge confesses his guilt, forcing Kirkland to confront the fundamental conflict between his professional obligations and his moral convictions. Christine Lahti, Jack Warden, John Forsythe, and Lee Strasberg round out the cast in this exploration of justice, corruption, and the cost of the law.
