Has TCM shown this one? I thought it was excellent- and it's a genuine "noir." It's PD, so there are a lot of poor copies online-this version seemed the best of the lot to me. https://archive.org/details/please_murder_me_ipod -RM

"A lawyer wins an a acquittal for his client, a woman accused of murder. After the verdict, he finds out that she indeed did commit the murder and manipulated him to win her acquittal."

Not to this post--just my written impersonation of Raymond Burr is all this is.

A lawyer MUST represent his client to the best of his/her ability? Even knowing the client is guilty?
