Description

When the very moralistic college ethics instructor finds himself living next door to an accused German death camp commander, he takes it upon himself to rid the world of this man.
Professor Lambert lectures on ethics and morals at a local University and lives alone in a quiet suburban area. However when his neighbour, is accused of war crimes as a Nazi he isn’t sure what to think. When he is told that Mueller is about to leave for Ecuador, where he will be free to live out his life without extradition he cannot morally accept it and decides to take action by murdering him. However Lambert’s ethics and need for justice soon cause the whole plan to crumble in a moral mess.
“Miller’s film looks professional and polished. It has a literate dialogue and you can see the efforts of a worthy cast.” – The New York Times
“’Getting Away With Murder’ presents some fascinating moral tangles.” – San Francisco Chronicle
“’Murder’ made me think. There’s something intriguing about the notion of a man doing egregiously wrong things for ostensibly moral reasons. ‘Murder’ poses some heady questions.” – The Onion A.V. Club
