Corrected entry: Sandra Bullock first arrives in the film by driving into town prior to the trial of two rapists. After her arrival, the victim's father Samuel L Jackson (Carl Lee) kills the rapists in open court. When Matthew McConnaughey later asks Bullock why she's in town, she says "Carl Lee", yet at the time of her arrival she can't have known who Carl Lee was as he hadn't committed any crime.
A Time to Kill (1996)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: Joel Schumacher
Starring: Samuel L. Jackson, Donald Sutherland, Kevin Spacey, Kiefer Sutherland, Matthew McConaughey, Sandra Bullock
Audio problem: When "Mickey Mouse" rescues Roark, he says something like "It's gonna be all right," yet his mouth is closed and not moving at all.
Lucien Wilbanks: If you win this case, justice will prevail, and if you lose, justice will also prevail. Now that is a strange case.
Trivia: In one of the courtroom scenes, the judge refers to Sandra Bullock as "Lois Lane." Around the same time this film was being made, Bullock was heavily considered to play the role of Lois Lane in Tim Burton's Superman Lives, but the movie was canceled just weeks before shooting.
Question: When Carl Lee Hailey visited Jake to tell him that he was thinking about killing those 2 men, wouldn't he have been required to report that to law enforcement? It's not considered attorney/client privilege when you tell your lawyer that you are planning to kill someone. And then he went home and told his wife about it, so wouldn't that also make her an accessory?
Answer: I'm not from America but couldn't you just say the conversation didn't take place? Maybe they didn't want to say anything due to being parents themselves and thinking they would do the same?
Correction: She's referring to why she's staying in town, not why she came into town in the first place.
