On this episode of Remainders we watch the 1957 classic murder mystery Witness for the Prosecution. Directed by Billy Wilder with all-time great performances by Charles Laughton, Tyrone Power, and Marlene Dietrich, Witness is an adaptation of the Agatha Christie play and is considered one of the best of the decade. Laughton plays a beleaguered and retired judge trying to salvage his health who is lured back into the courtroom after a man is accused of murder – only to discover his wife may not be the salvation they’d hoped for. With some of their best work by Wilder, Laughton, Power, and Dietrich, Witness is an all-time mystery classic.
Other topics include Charles Laughton’s 50s run, courtroom dramas, recent shows, modern Hollywood and streaming woes, Late Night with the Devil, The Fly collection and 80s horror remakes, and other physical media pick-ups.
