Review of Reversal of Fortune (2003) by Ashley H — 16 Oct 2012

Reversal of Fortune is an amazing film. It is about wealthy Sunny von Bülow who lies brain-dead, and her husband Claus guilty of attempted murder. Jeremy Irons and Glenn Close give excellent performances.

The screenplay is well written. Barbet Schroder did a great job directing this movie. I enjoyed watching the motion picture because of the drama and mystery. Reversal of Fortune is a must see.
