Zeugin der Anklage - Film in voller Länge | ARTE

Sir Wilfrid Robarts, Londons berühmtester Strafverteidiger, ist gesundheitlich nicht imstande, ein neues Mandat anzunehmen. Aber er kann dem Reiz seines neuen Falls nicht widerstehen: Leonard Vole wird beschuldigt, sich aus Habgier an die reiche Witwe Emily French herangemacht und sie ermordet zu haben. Und ausgerechnet Voles Frau Christine tritt als Zeugin der Anklage auf.

Had the pleasure to see 2 #AgathaChristie plays in #London! #TheMousetrap is the longest running play in the world, it has a good story with a somewhat unsatisfying reveal. OTOH #WitnessfortheProsecution is staged in #LondonCountyHall where you feel like you're part of the action. We were sucked into the story as scenes unfolded with unexpected twists right up to the end. Actors for both plays were brilliant, but the plot + stage setting + comfy seats made Witness the more enjoyable experience.

More Agatha Christie Theatrical Adaptations Are in the Works!!

Hercule Poirot (Kenneth Branagh) has been entertaining audiences for almost a decade with his intelligent strategy to solve murder cases. And 20th Century Studios already knows which Agatha Christi…

Welcome to Moviz Ark!

Another amazing fact (and probably injected by Wilder):
In those movies from the 1930s to 1960s, I mostly cannot guess the age of the persons, only tell “this one is younger than this.”

The victim, Emily French, is significantly older than the suspect, and also older than the suspect's wife (Dietrich) who seem to be a bit older than the suspect.

The victim is 56

The film was recorded in 1957

Marlene Dietrich was born in 1901

Do the math!

I just realized: in the courtroom scenes of “Witness for the Prosecution” (1957, by Agatha #Christie and Billy #Wilder with Marlene #Dietrich), the justices are referred to as “the Queen's justices.” And this queen was The Queen, Elizabeth II!

For the first time, I recently saw the movie and the current “head” wouldn’t be her anymore, but her son. That’s strange!

Witness for the Prosecution (1957)

When Leonard Vole is arrested for the sensational murder of a rich, middle-aged widow, the famous Sir Wilfrid Robarts agrees to appear on his behalf. Sir Wilfrid, recovering from a near-fatal heart attack, is supposed to be on a diet of bland, civil suits—but the lure of the criminal courts is too much for him, especially when the case is so difficult.
