The Offence - 1972 (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0070468/)
One of Lumet's lesser-known films that deserves wider recognition IMO. Without doubt the best Sean Connery performance I've ever seen. The narrative/scene structure, cinematography, acting and writing is ahead of it's time I suppose - The Offense could have been hatched from today's indie circuit.
I really like this film's ambiguity, so I don't think it helps to get into the plot here. It's safe to say if you enjoy gritty police psychological dramas, you should try and see Sidney Lumet's The Offence.
