Was it literature or mere smut? That was the question put before a British jury in 1960 about D.H. Lawrence's Lady Chatterley's Lover. The trial made headlines around the world, especially since the prosecutor quoted liberally from the book's explicit content while making his argument. Emmy and BAFTA-winning screenwriter Andrew Davies imagines the effect the trial might have had on two jurors. Includes trial background, D.H. Lawrence biography and cast filmographies. Contains coarse language, nudity and sexual situations.
