Review of Reversal of Fortune (1990) by Olga K — 19 May 2011

Jeremy Irons delivers a remarkable and enigmatic performance, and he owns every second he's on the screen. Silver, a fairly unheralded actor (in my opinion), is also excellent, and Close does a great deal with her limited role.

The film takes its time parceling out the details of the case, and while this gives the movie a somewhat meandering feel, I think it ultimately works to the story's benefit.
