Watched two courtroom movies today (can it be classified this way?):
Witness for the Prosecution and First Degree Fear, the latter of which I watched a second time (no doubt, I must have watched it the first time for Edward Norton after Fight Club). Yes, Edward Norton is almost becoming a double split professional, haha!
If the focus of the film is on the legal level of Europe and the United States, the 1958 "Witness for the Prosecution" is more perfect, and the ending is gratifying! The latter, the last few pictures, you know~~!
From the screenwriter's point of view, the defendants "also acted as directors" in the plot, playing around with their lawyers; the ending was surprising! "The Witness for the Prosecution" has "Infernal Affairs" in it, and "First Degree Fear" has "Troubleshooting"~~
Also, I don't really like the title of the film - the translation of "First Degree Fear"!

Primal Fear quotes

  • Martin Vail: [in Judge Miriam Shoat's chambers] You OK?

    Janet Venable: Am I OK? Do I seem OK? I get attacked by this sick twisted... I've lost the case and out of a job! So no, I'm not particularly OK, but you won! Justice was done, so who the hell cares, right? Congratulations! You knew didn't you? You knew if I went after him he'd wig out up there.

    Martin Vail: I knew he'd come out if he was threatened.

    Janet Venable: Who better to do that than me? You used me.

    Martin Vail: Yeah, I did. I had no choice, what did I use that was so terrible? I knew you'd do your job and I knew you'd try to win the case. What's wrong with that?

    Janet Venable: I lost my fucking job.

    Martin Vail: And that's good. You should've left them years ago.

    Janet Venable: Oh, Jesus! Why do you think you always know what's best for me?
