Reversal of Fortune focuses on one of the most intriguing criminal trials of the 1980s, that of Claus von Bülow, who was accused of sending his rich wife Sunny into a permanent coma with an overdose of insulin. Director Barbet Schroeder, working from Nicholas Kazan's evocative, darkly humorous script, turns the story into both a look at the lives of rich folks with too much time on their hands and a whodunit, as lawyer Alan Dershowitz (Ron Silver) prepares to defend von Bülow (Jeremy Irons) in court. Irons won an Oscar for his spooky, knowing performance, which hints at depths of degeneracy without ever putting a dent in a veneer of bored elegance. The contrast between the hard-charging Dershowitz and his eager-beaver Harvard law students and the eternally languid von Bülow adds unexpected humour. --Marshall Fine
Pinjar tells the story of triumph of love and humanity in the era when the communal hatred was in the full swings. Puro (Urmila Matondkar) is one such victim of this hatred and Rashid (Manoj Bajpai) is the man who rapes her. Poet at heart Ramchand (Sanjay Suri) was a rich man in undivided India. He becomes a refugee with the partition of his country. Sandali Sinha plays the newly wed Lajo whose life turns around with the tragedy that is facing the nation. Priyanshu Chatterjee is Trilok who is torn between relationships within the family. Pinjar according to the director is different because it uses partition theme in its entirety and not just in the backdrop like most films. Music of the film is composed by Uttam Singh while the lyrics are written by Gulzar.
