A lawyer is asked to come to the police station to clear up a few loose ends in his witness report of a foul murder.
Remake of Garde a vue: a murder mystery staged as a closed-room drama with the two male leads playing at their best, but still can't make the ending more believable - the original managed that much better.
Halliwell (no star): "Disappointing duel between two fine actors, who are not helped by the hyperkinetic style of the director. The result is much less compelling than the French original The Inquisitor/Garde a vue."
Maltin**1/2: "Hopkins uses some imaginative techniques, and the two leads are excellent, as usual, but overall it's routine and familiar."
