(actor)">Henry Kendall</a> and <a href="/wiki/Binnie_Barnes" title="Binnie Barnes">Binnie Barnes</a>. It was one of three films directed in Britain in the early 1930s by Canadian-American <a href="/wiki/Allan_Dwan" title="Allan Dwan">Allan Dwan</a> and was an early production from <a href="/wiki/Alexander_Korda" title="Alexander Korda">Alexander Korda</a>'s <a href="/wiki/London_Films" title="London Films">London Films</a>. <i>Counsel's Opinion</i> was based on a 1931 Gilbert Wakefield play and was remade, again by London Films, in 1938 as <i><a href="/wiki/The_Divorce_of_Lady_X" title="The Divorce of Lady X">The Divorce of Lady X</a></i> starring <a href="/wiki/Laurence_Olivier" title="Laurence Olivier">Laurence Olivier</a> and <a href="/wiki/Merle_Oberon" title="Merle Oberon">Merle Oberon</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Plot">Plot</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Counsel%27s_Opinion&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Plot"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Divorce barrister Logan arrives back in London from a trip overseas to find the whole city fogbound. Unable to reach his flat, he books into the exclusive Royal Parks Hotel, where a costume ball is taking place. Many of the partygoers are also stranded by the fog and while some are happy to bed down for the night in the hotel lounge, Leslie sweet-talks Logan into letting her stay in his suite. Although the pair are attracted to each other, the night passes innocently with Leslie in the bedroom and Logan in the sitting-room. As he leaves the suite for work the next morning, Logan barrels into a lady's maid in the corridor outside the room. </p><p>On arriving at <a href="/wiki/Judge%27s_chambers" title="Judge's chambers">chambers</a>, Logan is asked to act as counsel for Lord Rockburn, who is seeking a divorce from his wife. Logan accepts the brief, but then discovers to his horror that Lady Rockburn was a guest at the Royal Parks Hotel ball the previous night, and a cornerstone of the case is alleged impropriety after a maid observed a man leaving her room that morning. Convinced that Lady Rockburn can only be Leslie, Logan tries to back out from the case, until Lord Rockburn produces his chief witness the maid, who shows no sign of recognising Logan after their brief encounter in the hotel corridor. </p><p>When Leslie calls to return a dressing gown Logan lent her, he invites her to dine with him that evening, still believing her to be Lady Rockburn and intending to inform her of the situation. At the restaurant he lays his cards on the table and Leslie reassures him that she reciprocates his feelings. The romantic evening comes to an abrupt end when Lord Rockburn shows up at the same restaurant accompanied by another woman, and Logan and Leslie are forced to make an unobtrusive early exit to avoid a potentially scandalous public scene. They go back to Logan's flat, where he assures Leslie that he has fallen in love with her and will if necessary sacrifice his legal career for her. Meanwhile, Lord Rockburn is informed that a private detective he has on the case has uncovered the identity of his wife's lover. He decides to visit Logan immediately to tell him the good news, and is baffled by Logan's horrified reaction when he opens the door. Logan admits him to the flat where Leslie is sitting, throwing himself on Lord Rockburn's mercy by confessing that he loves her and is prepared to face the consequences. To his astonishment, the bewildered Lord Rockburn informs him that he has never seen Leslie before in his life. Leslie then confesses that she has gone along with Logan's incorrect assumption as a means of seeing how much he would be prepared to give up for her. She tells him that she is in fact a widow, and that he has passed the test with flying colours. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Cast">Cast</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Counsel%27s_Opinion&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Cast"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1216972533">.mw-parser-output .col-begin{border-collapse:collapse;padding:0;color:inherit;width:100%;border:0;margin:0}.mw-parser-output .col-begin-small{font-size:90%}.mw-parser-output .col-break{vertical-align:top;text-align:left}.mw-parser-output .col-break-2{width:50%}.mw-parser-output .col-break-3{width:33.3%}.mw-parser-output .col-break-4{width:25%}.mw-parser-output .col-break-5{width:20%}@media(max-width:720px){.mw-parser-output .col-begin,.mw-parser-output .col-begin>tbody,.mw-parser-output .col-begin>tbody>tr,.mw-parser-output .col-begin>tbody>tr>td{display:block!important;width:100%!important}.mw-parser-output .col-break{padding-left:0!important}}</style><div> <table class="col-begin" role="presentation"> <tbody><tr> <td class="col-break col-break-2"> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Henry_Kendall_(actor)" title="Henry Kendall (actor)">Henry Kendall</a> as Logan</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Binnie_Barnes" title="Binnie Barnes">Binnie Barnes</a> as Leslie</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Lawrence_Grossmith" title="Lawrence Grossmith">Lawrence Grossmith</a> as Lord Rockburn</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Cyril_Maude" title="Cyril Maude">Cyril Maude</a> as Willock</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Francis_Lister" title="Francis Lister">Francis Lister</a> as James Gowan</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Harry_Tate" title="Harry Tate">Harry Tate</a> as Taxi Driver</li></ul> </td> <td class="col-break col-break-2"> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/C._Denier_Warren" title="C.
