There is a movie from in 1982 that I love called The Verdict. As many great roles as Paul Newman had, I think this was his masterpiece, even great than Cool Hand Luke, The Sting or Butch Cassidy. It's a slow moving film about a medical malpractice lawsuit and Newman plays a once-great lawyer who is a beaten alcoholic, and the only lawyer desperate enough to take an unwinnable case. One of my favorite endings to any movie......not when the verdict is read, but the final scene, the final shot. I had no idea until maybe 3 years ago that David Mamet wrote the screenplay.
