Beyond a Reasonable Doubt

Beyond a Reasonable Doubt is a 2009 American crime thriller film written, directed, and shot by Peter Hyams, starring Michael Douglas, Jesse Metcalfe and Amber Tamblyn. Based on Fritz Lang's 1956 film of the same name, it was Hyams' second reimagining of an RKO property after 1990's Narrow Margin. In it, a young journalist (Metcalfe) sets himself up as a murderer to expose the unethical practices of a star prosecutor with a trumped-up conviction record (Douglas), but finds himself unable to produce the evidence he had prepared to restore his innocence.
