I watched this last night with my GF...

Based very closely on a historical rape case. It presents three different versions of the events and circumstances.
- The first by the husband
- Then the accused
- And finally from the wife and victim.

It was uncomfortable to watch because the sexual assault was depicted in detail. My GF got upset but she also got annoyed by some of the dialogue. Back then women were regarded as nothing more than the property of their husbands. This was really well depicted during the trial scenes.

It was certainly engaging but it seemed long in parts however I found the ending really satisfying.
Great movie but I can also see why it flopped at the box office.
