Les Bonnes Causes (1963)
Industriel miliardiare en retraite, homme à femme mais marié à une épouse bien plus jeune, Paul Dupré est malade. Il a une infirmière privée, Gina Bianchi vouée à ses bons soins, jour et nuit. Mais à la suite d'une piqûre intraveineuse du traitement médical, M. Dupré décède. Le juge Gaudet est chargé de l'instruction. Son épouse, Mme Catherine Dupré fait inculper la jeune et modeste Gina qui a réalisé l'injection, dont elle est certaine de la culpabilité. Tout l'accable et l'accuse ! Maître Cassidi, avocat puissant et redouté, ténor du barreau, capable de faire acquitter ou condamner qui il veut, assurera sa cliente, Mme Dupré, déjà sa maîtresse...
