Witness For the ProsecutionWitness For the Prosecution

1957- "Are you a chronic and habitual LIAR?" I love this film and Charles Laughton in this film. Every actor is at the top of their game in this edge-of-your-seat mystery. I won't say much more about the plot for fear of spoiling the film. Take my word, watch. Will not disappoint.
