A family struggles to the clear their son's name in The Winslow Boy, a 1999 film directed by David Mamet.

After meeting Ronnie and becoming convinced of the boy's innocence, Morton takes the case, which proves to be a difficult one.

Catherine Winslow (Gemma Jones), Ronnie's older sister and a blunt-speaking suffragette, finds herself reluctantly intrigued by Sir Morton, whose politics are so opposite her own but whose intelligence and skills are being used in the service of her brother's defense.
