(1961) Peter Van Eyck, Marianne Koch, Eva Bartok, Claus Holm, Werner Peters. Van Eyck is a prosecuting attorney who loses a murder case, although he’s certain the accused man was guilty of his wife’s murder. Obsessed with the case, he follows up on his own and stumbles into a whole torrent of twists and turns and more dead bodies. He eventually ends up in the witness chair himself, fighting for his life. A really solid German production with a great courtroom finale. 35mm.
