   Is Billy Wilder's witness for the prosecution a good movie?

   • Keeping the crisp dialogue and plot machinations from Agatha Christie's seminal play, Billy Wilder's Witness for the Prosecution remains a tentpole courtroom drama. Dated, yes, at times hammy, certainly. But awesome performances from both Laughton and Dietrich.
