`
`Legal Eagles - Wilcipedia, the free encyclopedia
`
`t I
`
`Legal Eagles
`
`From Wilcipedia, the
`
`encyclopedia
`
`Legal Eagles is a 1983 crime dramedy film written and directed
`by Ivan Reitman, and starring Robert Redford, Debra Winger and
`Daryl Hannah.
`3
`
`Plot details
`
`Tom Logan (Redford);is a successful attorney in the New York
`City District Attorney’; Office, who is on his way to becoming the
`new DA. Into his life enters Laura Kelly (Winger), an attorney
`who is representing Chelsea Deardon (Hannah). Chelsea is
`accused of stealing a tiiainting from an art dealer, Victor Taft
`(Ternence Stamp). However, Chelsea claims that the painting is
`actually hers, as her father made it for her and signed it to her on
`her 8th birthday I8 yeirs ago - the same day that her father and
`most of his paintings went up in smoke in a mysterious fire.
`6
`
`Alternate Endings:
`
`Kelly eventually manriges to convince Logan into helping them
`(after she creates an irripromptu press conference at the dinner
`where Logan is being introduced as the new candidate for District
`Attorney). However,
`ings turn even more mysterious when Taft
`suddenly drops all cha. es against Chelsea and a police detective,
`Cavanaugh (Brian D
`ehy), comes up with proofthat the
`paintings that suppose ly were lost in the fire - which were worth
`millions in insurance ~ ‘are still in existence. As Logan and Kelly
`dig deeper, they risk piitting their professions — and their growing
`romance for each otl1etii- on the line.
`'
`ox
`Unlike your average m_i_avie, Legal Eagles has several different endings. The movie opened to mediocre reviews in
`theaters and by the time it reached television, defendent Chelsea Dearden, had gone from innocent to guilty. The
`guilt or innocence of D:earden was clearly secondary to generating a profitable and satisfying movie. The alternate
`endings include her guilty ofone murder, innocent, and then guilty of a different murder.
