Brilliant story if you are into criminal law
This movie clearly shows what can happen when you practice plagiarism. New Orleans criminal defense attorney Lawson Russell is to be defending his client, except he knows for a fact his client is guilty, and therefore leads the court into a mistrial. After being disbarred from ever practicing law again, he retires to Key West. I happened to be living in Key West at the time this movie was being filmed. Cuba Gooding Jr is brilliant as he encounters a meeting with an old man - someone he believes to be an old man - who tells him he has written a novel and would like Russell to review it...then the old man "dies". Russell, believing the manuscript was so good, sees an opportunity to get rich quick. He retypes the manuscript putting his own name as the author not realizing everything in the manuscript was actually true. The book was written about 5 murders which actually occurred, and typed in detail -- this makes Russell out to look as if HE committed the murders. Cuba Gooding Jr in one of his best films. If you've been in Key West you will recognize the Key West Public Library, homes on Elizabeth St, the M&M Laundromat on White St., and Sloppy Joe's Bar on Duval St. Remember the movie does start out in New Orleans.

Simple, sweet, & deadly !!
Guy gets some backbone and makes the right choice. Then he makes a bad choice with unknown help. Could happen... finally makes the hard choice and pays the piper!! Well Done!
