While I do like the television adaptation, I really thought this would make a fine franchise for MM. Clive Cussler Sahara notwithstanding.

2025-04-07 08:18:50 +0000 UTCI disagree. This was not the start of his turn to a more serious actor. But I'd argue to say that Mud was the real start where you see his depth as an actor.

2025-04-05 22:45:00 +0000 UTCSuch a great movie. If you like this, a movie that's in a somewhat similar vein as this was Fracture, with Anthony Hopkins and Ryan Gosling. Another great courtroom drama as well. This movie started "The McConaissance", where Matthew McConaughey had effectively turned off most fans by doing a string of poorly received (but very profitable) rom-coms, and this was the start of his attempt to return to his roots and start making more serious movies that helped revive his image as more than just a pretty face in fluffy pablum. He followed this with a string of well received movies that won him praise and accolades as an actor, culminating in his Oscar win for Best Actor in The Dallas Buyer's Club. The interesting conundrum in this movie, which Cassie was struggling with, was about whether guilty clients deserve representation in court. This was also dealt with in Primal Fear, although in that movie Richard Gear's character doesn't struggle with representing bad people until Ed Norton flips it on him in a truly gut punch of an ending. This same issue will come up again soon in a movie Cassie looks slated to watch, although I won't specify which for spoiler reasons. The Constitution says that every person in America is entitled to a defense, and that people are presumed innocent until proven guilty, and that lawyers are required to "zealously represent their client within the bounds of the law" (hint hint). Failure to do so can result in disbarment and even criminal charges. This is what due process is all about, and is something that until recently we have had in the US since its inception almost 250 years ago.
