Winningham Searches for 'Legal' Justice
Post by: Sal
A woman could be the staunchest opponent of the death penalty, but if someone kills her child, that woman could easily murder the culprit.
And few juries would convict.
As the mother of grown children, Mare Winningham intuitively understood her character, Patrice Kelly, who was put in such a grim situation. In the Tuesday, Oct. 23, episode of ABC's "Boston Legal," Kelly seeks the advice of Alan Shore (James Spader) on how to kill the man who killed her daughter.
The following week, Shore needs to defend her.
"She is a woman determined to get away with murder, and she does have a very powerful motive to do so," Winningham says while making tea at her Los Angeles home.
"It's a great role and colorful, and I never played a Boston blue blood before," she says. "Upscale, up-do, beautiful clothes, pearls, very Jackie O. And it was really interesting to be in scenes where I know David E. Kelley was giving James Spader a moral conundrum."
