Jagged Edge -- A defense attorney (Glenn Close) falls for her client, a rich, handsome publisher (Jeff Bridges) who may or may not be what the prosecution claims he is: a cold-blooded murderer.

A grisly homicide... a sensational trial... a forbidden affair it's Jagged Edge, a razor-sharp suspense thriller about crime, punishment and passion. Jeff Bridges is the prime suspect and Glenn Close plays the attorney who falls in love with him. When a San Francisco socialite is viciously murdered, her publisher-husband, Jack Forrester (Bridges), is accused of committing the crime. Teddy Barnes (Close) decides to defend the charming, manipulative Jack, only to disregard legal ethics by having an affair with him. With the help of private eye Sam Ranssome (Robert Loggia), she takes on a ruthless D.A. (Peter Coyote) who's using the case as a political stepping stone. However, a startling revelation puts Teddy in jeopardy of becoming the next victim of the Jagged Edge.

Despite the fact that San Francisco attorney Teddy Barnes (Glenn Close) hasn't handled a criminal case in many years, she defends newspaper publisher Jack Forrester (Jeff Bridges), who's accused of murdering his heiress wife. Teddy soon finds herself falling for Jack, and her search for the real killer leads to a powerful finale. Robert Loggia (as Teddy's friend on the police force) and Peter Coyote also star in this taut courtroom mystery.
