Reversal of Fortune

Incredibly well done film

A just about perfect film about a strange real life court case. Every element of the film is brilliantly done. The way in which it presents the facts is very clear and understandable even when it is rather complicated, I was never confused at all because of how they made sure you knew everything . The case is incredibly interesting and the use of flashbacks to illustrate the case are well placed. The movie mostly sticks to the facts of just the case and does not get involved in the family of the case too much but when it does the scenes are also expertly done. The acting is all great especially Ron Silver as the lawyer. The only slight flaw in the film is it talks
of another case of the lawyers that there really is not enough information to care about it but the film kind of wants you too care about it luckily very little time is kept on the case.

Oscar Win Jeremy Irons Best Actor 5/5- Irons is perfect as Klaus Von Bulow. He perfectly shows the rich socialite who oddly likes to play around with peoples belief that he tried to kill his wife. He makes Klaus a man who you properly do not understand but are fascinated by his presence in every moment he is on the screen. Irons plays it so well that it is hard to decide if he really did something or if he just has a very dark sense of humor.
