Reversal of Fortune 역전에 산다

About

Reversal of Fortune is a 1990 American legal drama film directed by Barbet Schroeder and adapted from the 1985 book Reversal of Fortune: Inside the von Bülow Case by Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz. The film dramatizes the case surrounding the unexplained coma of socialite Sunny von Bülow, the subsequent attempted murder trial of her husband Claus von Bülow, and his eventual acquittal, in which Dershowitz served as part of the defense team. It stars Jeremy Irons as Claus von Bülow, Glenn Close as Sunny von Bülow, and Ron Silver as Alan Dershowitz. Screenwriter Nicholas Kazan originally considered Austrian actor Klaus Maria Brandauer for the role of Claus von Bülow, but Jeremy Irons was ultimately cast.
