The Paradine Case is a courtroom drama released in 1947 and based on a novel by Robert Hichens. Directed by Alfred Hitchcock, The Paradine Case creates a study of the human heart. Gregory Peck stars as Anthony Keane, the defense counsel for the purported murderess, who is accused of murdering her husband. It isn't exactly a film one ordinarily associates with Hitchcock. The uniqueness of this film lies in its character study and is one of the best examples of his suspense and drama style.
