And Justice for All

And Justice for All

1979

Satirical drama in which an idealistic lawyer who tries to win cases for clients trapped in a hypocritical and corrupt legal system finds himself defending a venal and self-righteous judge accused of rape. The judge wrongly assumes the lawyer's ideals and disdain for the courts will drive him to get an acquittal, despite the evidence and the loathing they have for each other.

"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States Of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under god, indivisible, with liberty . . . and justice for all".
