RED CORNER (1997) - Thomas Newman - Soundtrack Score Suite

About the movie In this provocative high stakes thriller, a smooth and savy lawyer travels to mainland China to broker a multi-billion dollar television deal. While celebrating the successful negotation, he meets a beautiful young Chinese woman only to wake up the next morning with her dead and him accused of her brutal rape and murder. He becomes trapped in a legal system with no presumption of innocence, with a Chinese woman lawyer who does not believe in his innocence and immediately files a guilty plea, insisting that she is saving his life: leniency for those who confess; severity for those who resist. Starring Richard Gere, Bai Ling and Bradley Whitford. Produced by Gail Katz and Wolfgang Petersen. Directed by Jon Avnet.
