Description: | A close-to-true account of the trial of Mary Surratt (Robin Wright) for the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. She was (in the movie) defended by Union soldier Frederick Aiken (James McAvoy), a young lawyer who did not want the case but fought hard for his client when he became convinced that, guilty or not, his client's rights were being violated. |
My Rating: | 7 |
