"4 Stars.A superb cast!" - David Ansen, Newsweek

David Mamet's brilliant adaptation of the The Winslow Boy is a rich and complex telling of the British classic, brought to life by a superior ensemble of talent.

The story follows the lives of the Winslows, a banker's family living in turn-of-the-century London, as they fight to prove the innocence of their youngest son accused of theft.After sir Robert Morton, a respected lawyer, agrees to represent the boy, the case becomes a national spectacle and threatens to erode the family's bond.But even as the legal circus engulfs the Winslow's lives, self-discovery and blossoming romance round out this period masterpiece filled with shimmering hope, wit and humanity.
