High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Night Falls On Manhattan is a 1997 film written and directed by Sidney Lumet, about a newly appointed DA who is eager to stamp out corruption within the New York Police Department. It stars Andy Garcia, Lena Olin, Richard Dreyfuss, Ian Holm and James Gandolfini. At an inauguration for a new class of Manhattan assistant district attorneys in New York, a lecturer gives a dull and uninspiring speech. He knows these ADAs regard their jobs only as a stepping stone to a higher paying job in finance, corporate or family (society) law. The new class includes Sean Casey, a former NYPD cop who went to law school at night. He plods through cases prosecuting thieves, drug addicts and lunatics, discovering that the system is overburdened, the judges apathetic and the cops see court testimony mainly as overtime. Sean truly believes in the law and even tries to help the perpetrators resolve their troubles.
