Mary Surratt is the lone female charged as a co-conspirator in the assassination trial of Abraham Lincoln. As the whole nation turns against her, she is forced to rely on her reluctant lawyer to uncover the truth and save her life.
Made in good taste and excellent
period detail and with a capable cast ensemble, this historical drama
focuses on an interesting aspect of the Lincoln assassination, but
without much suspense or giving the story the importance it actually
has.
Maltin**1/2: "'Historical drama never achieves the urgency it should, but McAvoy's impassioned performance is worth seeing."
