The Offence (1972)

 


The Offence is one of better Sydney Lumet films, otherwise overrated director. Based on play its story revolves around maniac who killed some kid in school. Movie is bit boring with all the talking considering it's adapted from a play. As main protagonist played by Sean Connery catch child molester he begins to interrogate him and quickly lose his temper. Obviously he has problems of his own, or some subconscious thing that drives him to torture him to that extent that criminal dies of his wounds. All in all good movie.
