Legal Eagles (1986)
4/10
Those eagles fly high (DVD)
26 February 2005
The movie resolves around a trio of actors, where each one is very characterized. Some might say this setting is too much one-dimensional, but with this handful of excellent actors, the movie comes alive right now and the audience has just to appreciate the teamwork. All the more that, each character shows two opposite traits, so there is really depth in it, and it is fun to see all those people tangled with each other.

So, ladies first: Hannah portrays a false-naïve but real-seductress daughter of a famous painter. She is totally convincing when she does her "performance". And if you are the kind to watch the end-credits, you will learn that she brought actively her creative impulse into it. Then, Winger acts as a willful but melting hearted advocate. At least, Redford is a goofy but strong attorney.

The entire story takes place in New York, in 1986. So, twenty years after, it adds a certain nostalgic flavor to it.

A good piece of art
