Directed by Gregory Hoblit and starring Richard Gere, this legal drama revolves around a defense attorney (Gere), who defends an altar boy, who is accused of murdering a Catholic Bishop. The tense movie’s biggest plot twist occurs at the end when Gere’s character gets to know that the humble persona of the altar boy was a falsehood and he faked dissociative identity disorder to manipulate the legal system. The movie is based on a novel by William Diehl.
