About The Judge and the Executioner
(Sherif) is a businessman who shares the company with his partner (Kamal). Kamal's father arrives from abroad and takes (Mahmoud), (Nahid's) fiancé, with him. They go to (Sherif) to offer a deal. Kamal is shocked when he sees his wife (Laila) with his friend and partner. He collapses and rushes to the car in a bad psychological state and is killed in an accident. (Mahmoud) confesses to (Nahid) the truth about the relationship between (Sherif) and (Laila). (Nahid) decides to take revenge on (Sherif), and the events of the film continue.
Directed by Nader Galal, The Judge and the Executioner leans on a strong ensemble — Rushdy Abaza, Naglaa Fathy, Mariam Fakhr Eddine — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1978.
