Face/Off (1997)
Plot summary
Directed by: John Woo
Starring: Nicolas Cage, John Travolta, Joan Allen, Alessandro Nivola, Gina Gershon
Sean Archer, an FBI covert terrorism expert, through advanced plastic surgery, assumes the identity of Castor Troy, his arch-nemesis, a sadistic terrorist. Things get complicated when the terrorist awakens from surgery, faceless, and forces the doctors to attach the FBI agent's face. Both characters then carry out one another's lives in a game of cat-and-mouse, the FBI agent pretends to be the terrorist while trying to locate and dismantle a nuclear weapon, while the terrorist assumes the role of FBI agent and family man.
Castor Troy: You'll be seeing a lot of changes around here. Papa's got a brand new bag.
Trivia: John Woo fought to keep the slash in the title, so moviegoers wouldn't think it was a film about hockey.

Chosen answer: It's obvious that enough time hasn't passed for a trial of such magnitude to take place, meaning that the brothers have been remanded in custody to await trial. They should have been arraigned but we don't see that onscreen.
