Brown, Kate Hudson, Dan Stevens, and James Cromwell.The movie tells the true story of a 1940 case where Joseph Spell, a Black chauffeur, is accused of raping his white employer. When the case makes national headlines, the NAACP sends their lawyer Thurgood Marshall to defend him. Upon arriving in Greenwich, Marshall is teamed up with Sam Friedman, a local attorney who has taken the case as a favor with the understanding that Marshall would be trying it in the courtroom, only for the judge to rule that only Sam is allowed to speak during the trial. Now the two of them have to work together to uncover the truth behind the case and prove their client's innocence.

Bait-and-Switch: While in the restroom of his synagogue, Friedman is asked by someone about the case. Friedman, cautious because he's afraid of what defending a black man accused of raping a white woman would make him look like, confirms he's part of the defense. The man who asked him then comments his father would be proud and slips him a 15 dollar bill to help with the defence.
