MONICA
DEACON BRODIE
(Scotland/United Kingdom, 1996 90 min.)
In 1788, the
city of Edinburgh is rocked with the revelation that
William Brodie (a.k.a. Deacon Brodie), master cabinet
maker and town councilor, had been found guilty of
attempting to steal a fortune from the city's Customs
and Excise offices. After a short trial revealing a
secret life of gambling, drinking, whoring and theft,
Brodie, the "successful" son of a proud and
established family, is sentenced to death by hanging,
ironically, on the very gallows that he had himself
designed.
