It’s one of those movies that you find yourself watching even though you’ve seen it a thousand times.

I loved that movie. The priest, the black doctor who gives “expert” testimony. The crooked judge. James Mason, Charlotte, Newman and his partner who’s name escapes me and of course the nurse. The sock on the jaw. Being surprised in the end. Newman wins the case.

GREAT!!!!!

I can’t turn it off if it comes on tv. When Newman calls the judge a bagman. “I know about you!” When the nurse testifies! When Newman runs into the bathroom to escape Charlotte badgering him as a loser! Fabulous movie when movies were still excellent. Went with my mom to see it and we loved it.

The Verdict IS a great movie. And Rampling's character DID deserve a slap across the face for what she did.

One of my favorite scenes is Newman at the bar having a "breakfast" of cracking a few raw eggs in a beer, chugging it, then heading to work.

He was like the anti-Rocky
