Michael Redgrave is a barrister prosecuting a man accused of murder – his wife (Nina Foch) asks if he can go in softer. It turns out the reason is the wife knows said man is innocent but can’t say anything because of blackmail. If that isn’t contrived enough circumstances arise where the barrister finds himself accused of murder, and he can't prove his innocence because of similar circumstantial evidence. Some brisk courtroom scenes but the piece ultimately ties itself up in knots.
