Reversal Of Fortune

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
In 1979, American heiress Martha 'Sunny' von Bulow (Glenn Close) lapses into a coma after being injected with insulin. Her husband, Claus (Jeremy Irons), is charged with murder. Sentenced to thirty years in prison, Claus gets out on bail for a million dollars and convinces lawyer Alan M. Derschowitz (Ron Silver) to file an appeal.

FROM AMAZON
Reversal of Fortune focuses on one of the most intriguing criminal trials of the 1980s, that of Claus von Bülow, who was accused of sending his rich wife Sunny into a permanent coma with an overdose of insulin. Director Barbet Schroeder, working from Nicholas Kazan's evocative, darkly humorous script, turns the story into both a look at the lives of rich folks with too much time on their hands and a whodunit, as lawyer Alan Dershowitz (Ron Silver) prepares to defend von Bülow (Jeremy Irons) in court. Irons won an Oscar for his spooky, knowing performance, which hints at depths of degeneracy without ever putting a dent in a veneer of bored elegance. The contrast between the hard-charging Dershowitz and his eager-beaver Harvard law students and the eternally languid von Bülow adds unexpected humour. --Marshall Fine
