The essence of great drama is the glimpse it affords into the underlying unknowns that trigger our emotions and motives, revealing the semi-conscious truths that we use to define ourselves, to condemn ourselves, to redeem ourselves. Everybody Wins (1990) was adapted for the screen from a play by one of America’s greatest dramatists, Arthur Miller. So when a seemingly altruistic woman hires an apparently honorable private detective to help exonerate a young prison inmate whom all evidence indicates was wrongfully convicted of murder, be prepared for a reality that is distinctly opposed to surface appearances.
