My Review:
Robert Duvall has the title role in The Judge. He’s been the judge in a small town court room for many many years. When his wife dies, his estranged son Hank, played by Robert Downey, Jr. comes back to town. And then the judge is faced with a murder charge, so his son steps up to defend him.
Fascinating characters and relationships – and a compelling story. Well written, beautiful performances.
