False Witness is a well-written and executed film that merits your attention

I recently caught the made-for-TV film False Witness (1989) on Tubi. The plot centers on a determined detective tasked with a high-stakes case that could propel her career. However, tensions arise between her and her partner, both professionally and romantically, threatening to derail their success.

Directed by Arthur Allan Seidelman (Echoes), the film stars Phylicia Rashad (The Cosby Show), Philip Michael Thomas (Miami Vice), Teri Austin (Knots Landing), George Grizzard (Bachelor Party), and Robin Mattson (General Hospital).

False Witness exceeds expectations, boasting a cleverly crafted storyline that Phylicia Rashad delivers with remarkable finesse. Her performance is stellar, and her poignant commentary on equality resonates profoundly, particularly given the film's era. While the production retains a made-for-TV aesthetic, the narrative is engrossing, replete with unexpected twists and a surprisingly compelling love story. The resolution is satisfying and ties up loose ends admirably.

In conclusion, False Witness is a well-written and executed film that merits your attention. I'd rate it a 7/10 and recommend giving it a watch.
