The Offence (1973)

This really feels like a vanity project for Sean Connery playing a police harboring his own dark predilections who brutally attacks a suspected child molester under his watch. It’s a very bare bones production, set almost entirely in an interrogation room, and relies wholly on Connery’s performance. It’s very dark and difficult to watch. It’s also rather talky, as many stage adaptations are, which makes it a little less riveting than I’d hope, but Connery does give his all in his portrayal with a depth that isn’t seen in many of his later films.
