After savagely murdering a woman and her newborn baby, Christie was able to convince a jury that the woman's husband was the actual perpetrator.

...adopts a deliberately drab, procedural style that finds an ideal centre in Richard Attenborough’s performance as Christie....

Dennis Schwartz

Unsettling true murder story.

...it can't reconcile its exposé on the British justice system which dominates the last third of the film and its lurid reenactments of Christie's crimes.

The banality of evil takes on a slightly different chill in this effectively low-key drama about a banal nebbish committing unspeakably evil acts.

Kennedy's book was fiercely confrontational and the film reflects this. This is a world where everybody is kicking downwards.
