Enjoyable, with a few nice little twists and turns and with much better acting than most TV movies can manage, mainly due to Marlee Matlin and Regina King. It's by no means perfect - the plot is a little too transparent, it does try one's suspension of disbelief at times and there is an element of over-simplicity to it - but it was a surprisingly absorbing movie even with its problems. A deaf woman is accused of a murder and the lawyer who's charged with defending her has the task of unravelling what really happened; it's certainly not up to the standard of Grisham-esquire courtroom dramas, but it doesn't disappoint.
