Criminal Law
After successfully defending a man accused of murder, the same type of murder occurs again. The previously defended client immediately employs the attorney again, and despite the fact that the attorney is certain he is the murderer, he agrees to represent him once more... much to his friends' chagrin. However, he explains that by acting as his attorney, he will be better able to catch the killer if he makes a mistake... and thus the rest of the film unfolds, with the killer and the attorney playing a cat and mouse game until, at long last, they both must recognize that they are not that dissimilar.
