High Crimes
Release Date:
April 5, 2002
This film reunites Ashley Judd and Morgan Freeman, who co-starred in the 1997 film Kiss the Girls. The movie is based on a novel by Joseph Finder.
Judd plays an attorney who has to defend her husband against some military charges. He is charged with desertion and participating in a mass killing in El Salvador. Since she's a little out of her element, she enlists the help of a former military attorney (Freeman). As the trial progresses, she starts doubting her husband's innocence and starts questioning everything.
Judd and Freeman have both proven big box-office draws in the past. Both have an impressive list of awards and nominations for their work. Freeman has been nominated twice for an Oscar as best actor and once as best supporting actor. (Marty Doskins/BOP)
