Review of Double Jeopardy (1999) by Ross W — 14 Sep 2010

Libby Parsons (Ashley Judd) is convicted for the murder of her husband. She goes to prison, leaving her son with her best friend, Angela but soon finds out that her husband faked his death for reasons you'll find out when you watch the film. She serves her term and gets out 6 years later tracking down her husband across two or three cities while tangling with her parole officer Tommy Lee Jones who seems a bit of a jerk but comes to believe in her cause.

The whole 'Double Jeopardy' clause of law was rather interesting. I was expecting to see more legal based stuff, but the whole focus seemed to be on Ashley Judd and whether or not she could look good while escaping from numerous people.
