norman jewisons blackly satirical look at the american justice system has gained in stature as one of the more incisive social commentaries of its time . al pacino plays arthur kirkland an incorruptible attorney who attempts to initiate reforms in the maryland justice system . kirkland is haunted by the fates of two past clients one of whom committed suicide in jail ; the other is still alive but is locked up on a trumped up traffic violation . the ability of power and money to distort the pursuit of justice becomes all too clear as kirkland finds out how deeply the rot has spread . he finally retaliates by representing a repulsive judge john forsythe accused of rape . pacinos and forsythes performances are intense and powerful . many critics found the film biting and almost painful in its razor sharp indictment of the justice system while others declared the script too outrageous . don kaye all movie guide . br br cc digitally mastered audio & video full screen presentation english dolby digital mono french and spanish language tracks english french spanish portuguese chinese korean and thai subtitles directors commentary theatrical trailers talent files interactive menus scene selections . br br digitally mastered audio and anamorphic video widescreen and full screen presentations audio english mono french spanish subtitles english french spanish portuguese chinese korean thai directors commentary theatrical trailers talent files interactive menus production notes scene selections .
