Presumed Innocent

I enjoyed watching this. It starts off slow, and at first I wasn’t really into Ford’s glum performance, but the story does get quite good, and luckily I had forgotten how it ends, so I didn’t know what to expect — really didn’t see that ending coming, even though I definitely watched this back in the day. This also made me think that I used to really like courtroom dramas (sure, lots of them of the John Grisham variety), and it feels like I haven’t watched a new one (and I’m specifically referring to movies here, not TV series) in ages. Then again, maybe it’s because I don’t pay enough attention to new releases these days, while spending so much time revisiting old films.
