Presumed Innocent is a 1990 American
legal thriller film based on the 1987 novel of the same name by Scott Turow. The film follows Rusty Sabich (Ford), a prosecutor who is charged with the murder of his
colleague and mistress Carolyn Polhemus
(Scacchi).
 
Prosecuting attorney Raymond Horgan (Brian Dennehy) assigns his chief deputy, the taciturn Rusty Sabitch (Harrison Ford), to investigate the rape and murder of colleague Carolyn Polhemus (Greta Scacchi), unaware of their torrid affair. When evidence implicates Rusty, Horgan's political enemies demand his arrest, devastating Rusty's wife, Barbara (Bonnie Bedelia). In desperation, Rusty turns to crafty defense attorney Sandy Stein (Raul Julia), only to be stunned by his trial's revelations.
 
A very good used DVD movie in a case with mild wear.
