Twilight of Honor

Chamberlain plays a young attorney and widower, David Mitchell who’s assigned a rotten case, that of an unstable soldier accused of murdering one of the small New Mexico town heroes, and he’s confessed – twice. The special prosecutor is hoping to sweep into political office with the case, and the judge sides with him through most of the trial. Mitchell turns to the distinguished attorney and his friend, Art Harper, who is ill but nonetheless is full of fire and gives Mitchell some guidance. The defense is a New Mexico law that allows a man to kill because of adultery, something the victim’s widow and his friends would like to keep quiet. —IMDb
