I still see Judd Nelson in high-school on detention. It wasnt made long after BREAKFAST CLUB, but this movie is pretty good. The first half is a comedy, but the second half is a very serious murder trial with a great performance from John Hurt. I can't help but think that Anthony Hopkins watched this movie and got his HANNIBAL characteristics from Hurt's sophisticated performance here....
I give this movie an 8 just for Hurt's performance alone. The rest of the movie would garner a 6+ for its 'low budget' supporting cast. Though, Nelson is charming...
