1955年7月13日晨,英国妇女罗丝·埃里斯由于枪杀其情人戴维·布莱克利而在伦敦被处以绞刑。陪审团仅用了25分钟便判决罗丝有罪,了结此案。然而,这桩速决案直接导致了1969年英国对死刑的废除,罗丝成了英国历史上最后一名被绞死的女人。这桩轰动西欧的公案也因此一度吸引了许多剧作家及小说家,并被多次搬上银暮。英国故事片《与陌生人共舞》根据真实事件改编,摄于1984年,由英国著名导演迈克·纽厄尔执导,英国影剧双栖明星米兰达·理查森及英国著名影星鲁珀特·埃弗里特主演。上演后一度轰动欧美,被誉为“再度给英国电影注入生命力的新片”。——编者 On the morning of July 13, 1955, British woman Rose Ellis was hanged in London for killing his lover David Blakely. It took only 25 minutes for the jury to convict Rose that he had settled the case. However, this quick resolution directly led to the abolition of the death penalty in Britain in 1969, and Rose became the last woman hanged in British history. This case of sensation in Western Europe has thus attracted many playwrights and novelists, and was repeatedly moved to silver twilight. British feature film “Dancing with strangers” Adapted from real events, taken in 1984, directed by the famous British director Mike Newell, the British film amphibious star Miranda Richardson and the famous British actor Rupert Everett Rittles starring. Once staged after the sensation of Europe and the United States, known as “once again inject vitality into the British film new movie.” --editor
