Witness for the Prosecution (1982 TV Movie)
7/10
OK, although I prefer the 1957 adaptation
23 September 2020
The story "Witness for the Prosecution" is one of the most shocking and brain - washing in the work of Agatha Christie, because it was just great to explain everything in this way! The 1957 film adaptation is great, I really liked that adaptation, but this one is also quite good. Of course, the lawyer and the nurse and their arguments and bickering are much better (a hundredfold) in the earlier adaptation, but this is not the main disadvantage. This film is actually a complete remake of the 1957 film, which is exactly what it loses, since it retells the old film almost verbatim, while not introducing anything new and removing some good old things. But still, This movie is a good way to spend time if, for example, you don't like old/off - color movies, or if You want to see a shorter adaptation - the 1982 version is at Your service. 7/10
