Title: Newman deserved the Oscar
Product review: Paul Newman's performance in "The Verdict" is one for the ages; brilliant & nuanced & it should have won him the Oscar in 1982. Newman's character is a broken man, who finds redemption by the film's end. It's not easy - he's up against the Catholic church here - in one of the greatest courtroom dramas on film.I love how alone Newman is throughout this film & how David Mamet writes it without one false move. Hey, at least David had a slingshot. An American classic.
