FanFare

A law student uncovers a conspiracy, putting herself and others in danger. The best of movies based on John Grisham's legal thrillers (in my opinion). The last film from Alan J. Pakula before his death (And similar to his earlier Paranoia trilogy, Klute, Parallax View and All the President's Men). Memorable Pelican theme by James Horner. Terrific cast. Love this.

Salma Hayek faces John Lithgow. The earhly, spiritual hired help vs. the crass, lion-hunting billionaire. Neunced and subtle one set play in a minor key. Shot before the election.
