physical evidence

Physical Evidence is a 1989 crime thriller film directed by Michael Crichton (in his final film as a director), and stars Burt Reynolds, Theresa Russell and Ned Beatty. It follows Joe Paris, a beleaguered ex-police officer who is incriminated by the evidence, but insists on his innocence.

Real evidence, material evidence, or physical evidence is any material object that plays some actual role in the matter that gave rise to the litigation, introduced in a trial, intended to prove a fact in issue based on the object's demonstrable physical characteristics. Physical evidence can conceivably include all or part of any object.
