:45:00
- Not me.
- We'd better try.

:45:03
The people of this country have only
one absolute protection against chaos:

:45:08
The law.
:45:09
You and I were appointed
to this court for only one reason:

:45:12
To uphold and sustain that law.
:45:15
Watch out, you can't turn the law
into a straitjacket.

:45:18
The law's gotta be a suit of clothes
a man can wear.

:45:20
It's gotta fit easy.
Be comfortable.

:45:22
Law shouldn't strap a man in
at the throat or the brain or the crotch.

:45:28
That's vivid.
:45:29
You're making Maloney
more important than the law.

:45:32
- He is more important.
- This court doesn't try men.

:45:35
We put their trials on trial.
:45:36
That's it. We're constantly examining
the witness who isn't there.

:45:39
All we ever get to see are lawyers,
cold records, cold briefs.

:45:43
Where's the human being? Where's
the pain? We've gotta touch flesh.

:45:47
I'll tell you where the pain is.
It's in the people who get hurt.

:45:51
The innocent kid
who sits in a dark theater

:45:53
while Maloney's filth pours over him.
That's where the pain is.

:45:57
You're on the right track.
:45:59
You're beginning to look at people.
:46:02
When you let a little more humanity
into your thinking,

:46:04
you might make
a damn good justice.

:46:07
But I won't bet on it.
:46:11
You're just being sweet to me
because I'm a woman.

:46:23
Do I have any appointments
this afternoon?

:46:25
- 3:15, Miller of security...
- Cancel it!

:46:36
- Mrs. Snow just called.
- Call her back.

:46:39
Tell her I can't talk to her.
And blow your nose, please.

:46:43
I don't wanna talk to anybody.
I gotta work, concentrate.

:46:46
Yes, sir.
:46:52
He says he doesn't want...
:46:53
I wouldn't dream
of disturbing Justice Snow.

:46:56
I'm looking for Herbert G. Maloney,
film producer.
