SYNOPSIS
A GENUINELY original idea for a drama weighing justice, prejudice and the human conscience is studiously frittered away in "A Covenant With Death," heading a new circuit double bill yesterday. The first half of the other picture, derived from Stephen Becker's novel and starring a former television favorite, George Maharis, almost shapes up provocatively, in describing how a young judge in a New Mexico community renders justice in a particularly circuitous murder case. Trouble is the film itself slips into a devious, figure-eight treatment, siphoning out the action and even the characterizations.
