The Big Picture There is perhaps no author in history whose name is more synonymous with the mystery genre than Agatha Christie, as the British writer is responsible for literally hundreds of great detective stories.

Release Date 2018-00-00 Director Ben Affleck Cast Ben Affleck Main Genre Drama Studio 20th Century Fox What Is ‘Witness for the Prosecution’ About? Witness for the Prosecution is based on a 1953 play of the same name by Christie, who had adapted it herself from her 1925 short story “Traitor’s Hands.” The film centers on the experienced lawyer Sir Wilfrid Robarts , whose recent brush with a heart attack has only emphasized his dedication to serving the law.

Related The Best Agatha Christie Movie Isn't a Murder Mystery The movie is based on the real-life incident when the Queen of Crime vanished under mysterious circumstances. Wilfrid is a far different protagonist than those in other Christie adaptations, as none of his legal investigative skills are out of the ordinary; he has succeeded in his given craft because of his dedication to a formal process that so many in his profession are keen to ignore.

While the “whodunit” nature of the cast and Wilder’s brilliant writing make it a very fun adaptation, Witness for the Prosecution examines how easily justice can be manipulated within the legal system. While Wilfrid spends an extensive amount of time conducting research into analyzing Christine’s handwriting and assessing the legitimacy of Vole’s alibi, he finds that the jury is easily swayed by charismatic witnesses.
