Plot: Record producer Phil Spector hires Bruce Cutler to defend him when he's accused of murder. Cutler persuades Linda Kenney Baden to advise him. While the prosecution's story is contradicted by facts in the case, there is convincing circumstantial evidence against Spector, not the least of which is his appearance. As Baden gradually takes over the defense, even as she is ill with pneumonia, she must find a way to introduce ballistic evidence in a dramatic enough fashion to plant doubt in the jury's mind. Calling Specter to testify may be the only way to stage the evidence. She coaches him and rehearses him: can he (and she) pull it off?

Quotes:
Ike Turner, Sr.: Hey, Anna Mae, where you goin'? I need to get some sleep!::Tina Turner: Go straight to hell, Ike!
Tina Turner: [to the audience] You know, every now and then, I think you might like to hear something from us nice and easy. But there's just one thing: we never, ever do nothing nice and easy, we always do it nice and rough. So we're gonna take the beginning of this song and do it easy, and then we're gonna do the finish rough. That's the way we do Creedence Clearwater's "Proud Mary".
Tina Turner: I just believe that anything is possible. You know, anything. Now, it took me a long time to get Ike out of my system. And now that I've done that, I'm ready. I'm ready and I know what I want.
Ike Turner, Sr.: [to Tina] Now, you listen to me. I MADE you. You were nothing before you met me, and you ain't gonna be nothing without me.
Grandma Georgiana: Your mama had to go away for a while.::Young Anna Mae Bullock: When is she coming back to get me?::Grandma Georgiana: She ain't, honey. She just ain't.
Jackie: [to Anna Mae] Lorraine was Ike's last gig. He's always booking ahead. Now, you watch yourself.
Zelma Bullock: Now, Anna Mae, I know I wasn't around. But believe me, you were too young to know what was going on with your daddy and me.::Tina Turner: Did Alline understand? She ain't that much older then me.::Zelma Bullock: Now, don't think you're going to come live in my house and make me feel bad. You're gonna have to pull your own weight, girl. This ain't just some party town, you hear?
Judge: I want you to be very sure about this. This means you're gonna walk out of here with absolutely nothing.::Tina Turner: Except my name. I'll give up all that other stuff, but only if I get to keep my name. I've worked too hard for it, your honor.::Ike Turner, Sr.: The name is mine. The name got my daddy's blood on it. If she wanna go, she can go wherever she wanna go, but the name stays home!
Ike Turner, Sr.: [to Tina] Now, we got the right song in the right place at the right time! Now, I need you to get out on that stage right now!
Jackie: [after being hit by Ike for defending Tina] Fuck you, Ike! I'm outta here. You ain't got to hit me but once!::Tina Turner: Jackie, it's alright!::Jackie: It's not alright unless the motherfucker piles on you! If you had any sense, you'd get outta here, too.::Ike Turner, Sr.: [throws Jackie's bag at her] If you had any sense, you'd get the fuck out of here!::Jackie: [to Ike] KISS MY ASS!::[to Tina]::Jackie: You're a dead woman if you stay here!::Ike Turner, Sr.: And don't let me catch you around in my house either!
