Murderous Triangle (Original Title: Double Jeopardy ) is an American thriller from 1992 .

action

Jack Hart is married to a lawyer and has one daughter. He has an affair with Lisa Burns Donnelly, whom he has known since college. After Lisa kills her boyfriend in self-defense in the presence of Jack, she is charged with murder.

Jack's wife takes over the defense. Jack is summoned as a witness and faces the dilemma of whether he should exonerate his lover, for which he would have to admit the relationship. Eventually he admits the affair, which leads to the acquittal. Jack then doubts whether Lisa was really acting in self-defense.

Reviews

“The parallels to the hit ' A fatal affair ' are obvious , but the creators showed enough cleverness to cleverly vary the motif of the woman who invades the life of a married couple. With their names, Sela Ward and Sally Kirkland vouch for solid quality and sufficient tension to help overcome some inconsistencies. "

"An awkwardly designed television thriller: the trial lacks surprises, the marriage and triangular drama lacks passion, the scrambling in the Rocky Mountains is not even decorative."

Reception and miscellaneous

The location was Salt Lake City .
