The Verdict
Frank Galvin is a down-on-his-luck lawyer and reduced to drinking and ambulance chasing, when a former associate reminds him of his obligations in a medical malpractice suit by serving it to Galvin on a silver platter—all parties are willing to settle out of court. Blundering his way through the preliminaries, Galvin suddenly realizes that the case should actually go to court—to punish the guilty, to get a decent settlement for his clients... and to restore his standing as a lawyer.

Despite producing some all-time classic films, the legal world has never struck me as a natural fit for the screen. Maybe it's because I work in the space, but it always feels like we're getting a watered down, oversimplified version of the strangely complex bureaucracy that is the U.S. legal syste More
