1:50. that subtle, look of surprise. the moment she realizes the game has changed-- that the man she must betray has noble intentions and a good heart. fine, understated acting from charlotte rampling.
Franks says: maybe I can do something right. Then Laura feels uncomfortable knowing she's doing something wrong, trying to take away that chance at justice, and she represents the corruption that jurors are afraid of.
Newman was great, but his character is quite straightforward: the crusader looking for justice and personal redemption. Charlotte Rampling's performance was much more fascinating. She wants to believe in him, and she wants to believe in justice, but the more she does, the more pain she feels, because she knows she has to betray him. This movie was a masterpiece.
The Verdict version 1982 by Sidney Lumet not confused about the 1946 film noir starring Sydney Greenstreet & Peter Lorre, featuring Don Siegel make director debut
Rampage Clover I love him to death, but I would have given Dustin Hoffman the Oscar for “Tootsie” first. Newman would be my second choice. And to be fair, Kingsley was no slouch in “Gandhi” either.

RIP Paul Newman (January 26, 1925 - September 26, 2008), aged 83
You will always be remembered as a legend.
James Mason and Charlotte Rampling were great in this movie as well. A well-done movie all around.
Here! Here! Also Jack Warden, James Handy and Milo O'Shea
God, I love the way this scene is lit and photographed. The smoke, the class ring, his blue eyes.... 👌
AND the script and the acting.
It's Lumet.

Sidney Lumet was the master of working in confined spaces.
I think he almost hated fields. 😉
Rampling is stunningly beautiful here.
Yep.
Guess you have to be a guy. Never thought she was beyond averagely attractive
Newman is good looking too

Wrong.
she doesn't want to or not want to believe in him.
Large case.
she was a paid operative doing a chore.
rampling played it great.
All did.
I felt she tried to be a Bacall clone

Disgraceful that Newman didn't win the Oscar for this...
And Ghandi got best picture, a total bore of a movie(this is not a comment on Ghandi's greatness)
Rampage Clover I love him to death, but I would have given Dustin Hoffman the Oscar for “Tootsie” first. Newman would be my second choice. And to be fair, Kingsley was no slouch in “Gandhi” either.
That category was stacked with legendary actors. Ben Kingsley, Dustin Hoffman, Paul Newman, Jack Lemmon, Peter O’Toole.
Agreed.
In all fairness that year's nominees were all phenomenal. It was a special category in 1982. Anyone of them could have deservedly won.
Man, Charlotte's voice hasn't changed since then. Still great!
'My God, you are some beautiful woman.'
I'm stealing that line Mr. Newman
Well, Duh
I think you meant, “Mr. Mamet.”
THANKS!
you know it really helps when making a movie you employ actors with legendary before their names , i.e. PAUL NEWMAN and JAMES MASON .
Great dialogue , great acting and direction
Paul Newman’s best performance. Not Cool Hand Luke or The Hustler or Hot Tin Roof. This is his best
They were all great.

The scene where he slaps her would cause a PC police riot if something like that were in a movie made today.
Why did he slap her v
@@Borg02 b/C SHE WAS A TRAITOR FOR THE OTHER SIDE, while working for Paul
Same when they talk about the black expert
That women just looks troubled and sad the whole movie...Charlotte.
Lauren Bacall doppelgänger!
Hahahaha
Really close . . . but Charlotte was drop dead *gorgeous*!
Voice 😍
It's a cigarette commercial.
Why did he slap her.????
Because she was a mole on the payroll of the roguish defense legal team.
She betrayed him.
She was a spy for James Mason, who was a sinister lawyer whose client was the archdiocese of Boston who ran the hospital.
