Madeleine Movie Review 1950

Courtroom drama of woman charged with poisoning her French lover in 1850s Scotland. Directed by the same David Lean who made "Bridge on the River Kwai" and "Lawrence of Arabia." Here, though, he was merely trying to provide a vehicle for his wife, actress Todd. Intrigued?
