A Time to Kill (1996)

A Time to Kill is a thought-provoking legal drama film released in 1996, directed by Joel Schumacher. Based on the gripping novel by John Grisham, it tackles the themes of race, justice, and morality in the Deep South of the United States. The story follows the trial of Carl Lee Hailey, played by Samuel L. Jackson, a black man who takes the law into his own hands after his daughter is brutally raped by two white men. He seeks justice by hiring a fearless defense attorney, Jake Brigance, portrayed by Matthew McConaughey, who finds himself fighting not only for his client's freedom but also to confront the racial conflicts plaguing the town.

The film boasts an exceptional ensemble cast including Sandra Bullock, Kevin Spacey, Ashley Judd, Donald Sutherland, and Kiefer Sutherland, each delivering powerful performances that add depth to this gripping courtroom drama.

A dissenting psychiatrist disagreed with you, doctor.
About me calling Ozzie?
Actually, I'm very much in favor of it.
Actually, it is that simple, Carl Lee.
Additionally, the state opposes any request for bail.
After that, Buckley will push for a fast trial.
After what that man has been through, he's probably capable of anything.
Ain't nothing more dangerous in this world than a fool with a cause.
All depends on the jury, Carl Lee.
All I could think about was all the monsters out there...
All in this courtroom know the truth.
All in this state know the truth.
All pretrial motions and matters should be filed no later than July 8.
All right, boys, today's your big day.
All right, everybody, jury selection begins this afternoon.
All right, Harry Rex. Yeah.
All right, so, Dr. Bass, how would you diagnose Mr. Hailey...
All right, when do I get the rest?
All right.
All right. Fine. Batter up.
All right. First things first, Brigance will file for a change of venue.
All rise.
All the other cases I've worked on have only been paper defendants.
All the while I kept hearing my baby say:
All those weekends, fishing, drinking, lounging...
Almost every other county is 40 , 45 , in some cases 70 percent black.
Also, send a case of whatever it is he's drinking these days to Lucien Wilbanks.
And as such...
And how did you feel?
And I agree with you. I think it's impossible to find a fair and impartial jury in Canton.
And I ask you all to close your eyes...
And I can't be you, Lucien.
And I feel sorry for their mamas and their daddies, but...
And I have never had or ever will have any boyfriend.
And I let them push me.
And I lost my job at the mill.
And I remember them walking in court...
And if I did...
And legally insane.
And Mr. Baker was found insane and institutionalized.
And Mr. Baker was found not guilty by reason of insanity.
And number two, he is required to request bail.
And of the 1 percent of that that resulted in acquittal...
And put it in his own.
And she drops some 30 feet down to the creek bottom below.
And since you are a law clerk...
And that something is the truth.
And that's why my editor said I needed to come down and interview Rodeheaver.
And that's why you brought me to this black diner in this black neighborhood.
And they rip her clothes from her body.
And to make white people the sole masters of our nation's destiny.
And today ain't even my birthday.
And we raised an additional $2000 from the local churches.
And were you able to identify any of the fingerprints found on this gun?
And what happened to your leg?
And when I graduate...
And when they're done...
And where were you when your son was murdered?
And with those hands, he took the lives of two young men.
And you know this thing could get ugly. And dangerous.
And you, are you on vacation?
And you, sir.
And you've got one big fat chance...
Answer the question, yes or no.
Any more of that nonsense...
Are you afraid I'm gonna see you in your underwear?
Are you and Daddy fighting?
Are you Carl Lee Hailey's attorney?
Are you getting this?
Argument, rebuttal, examination and cross. All of it.
Ask him if he thinks I ought to go to jail.
At the time of the murders, his mental condition...
Attorney to the stars, yes.
Baby, I'm proud of you.
Baby, there's been no Klan around here for years, okay?
BAILIFF: All rise for the Honorable Judge Omar Noose.
BAILIFF: All rise for the Honorable Judge Omar Noose.
Bass turned out to be a felon.
BASS: Of course.
Be better than me.
Be proud.
Be seated.
Because the eyes of the law are human eyes...
Besides, um, Dr., uh...
Better than being a widow.
Big liar.
Billy Ray Cobb, you and Mr. Willard need to come with me.
BILLY RAY: Give me one.
BILLY RAY: Shut up!
Blacks are more sympathetic to other blacks.
Both revenge killers, both acquitted.
Brigance couldn't tie his own tie without that old drunk Wilbanks.
Buckley is presenting his shrink tomorrow.
BUD: God! Unh!
But a whore like you...
But feeling terrible...
But I was wrong.
But I'm not going to read it.
But it's not your fault. You didn't kill those boys.
But lose...
But the fact is...
But the man cannot hold his liquor.
But the people of the state of Mississippi...
But them animals?
But wait a minute, doctor. The defense contends
But what is the truth?
But when you think that it's possible that those two animals could...
But you can.
But you see, in all this legal maneuvering...
But you've done beat him, ain't you?
BUTLER: Good afternoon. JAKE: Good afternoon.
BUTLER: You may come this way. The judge is upstairs.
Calculating.
Can you recall testifying at the trial of one Dan Baker?
Can you see her?
Can you see her?
Can you tell us how old your son was at the time of his death?
Can't she see I'm shriveling away here?
Carl Lee chose you.
Carl Lee does not have a chance. Ow.
Carl Lee got trapped on the stand by Buckley.
Carl Lee Hailey did murder Billy Ray Cobb, a human being...
Carl Lee Hailey is guilty.
Carl Lee Hailey knew very well what he was doing.
Carl Lee Hailey should've shot you too.
Carl Lee Hailey.
Carl Lee Hailey.
Carl Lee Hailey's on trial because he's black.
Carl Lee invited us here.
Carl Lee, I am your friend.
Carl Lee, I can't try a capital murder case for $900.
Carl Lee, they amputated his leg because you shot him.
CARL LEE: Jake.
CARL LEE: Let me ask you something, Reverend.
CARL LEE: No, sir.
CARL LEE: She holding on.
CARL LEE: That's all right.
Carl Lee.
Carl Lee's acquittal for the killings of two white men...
CARLA: Hannah girl, let's go inside for a minute.
CARLA: Hannah? What is it? Oh, my God!
CARLA: Hey, Max. Hey.
CARLA: Honey?
CARLA: Hurry up, honey.
Caught him selling dope.
Cheat like crazy.
Cheat.
CLAUDE: Quit playing with that food. But, ladies, y'all come back.
Come here, come here!
Come here.
Come here. Come here, boy. Ha ha ha.
Come here. Come here.
Come on in. Come in.
Come on out. Willard.
Come on, Freddie. Let's go on home.
Come on, lover boy, let's get to court.
Come on, Roark, do I look that easy?
Come on!
Come on.
Come with me.
Continue.
Could it be, doctor, the reason you can't remember...
Could not tell right from wrong...
Counsel.
Course, it's shit.
Court adjourned.
Court is adjourned till tomorrow morning 9:00.
Court is in session. The Honorable Omar Noose presiding.
Court will recess for lunch.
Court will recess one hour for lunch.
Cross examination, Mr. Brigance?
CROWD [CHANTING]: Free Carl Lee!
CROWD [CHANTING]: Free Carl Lee! Free Carl Lee! Free Carl Lee!
CROWD: Free Carl Lee!
DA picks the jury...
Damn. Lucien, I was counting on you.
Dead, buried...
Defuse it.
Deputy Looney.
Did you arrest Cobb and Willard?
Did you get a good look at the man with the gun?
Didn't like that one?
Didn't think I'd do it, did you?
Didn't you defend Billy Ray Cobb few years back?
District attorney.
Do everyone a favor, though.
Do you normally admit patients...
Do you think he should be punished for shooting you?
Do you think he was crazy when he did it?
Do you think men who kidnap a child should be free in 10 years?
Do you think the jury should convict Carl Lee?
Do you think two men who hang a child should be free in 10 years?
Do you want me to stay?
Do you, Carl Lee?
Doc cut it off.
Doctor says she ain't out of the woods yet, though.
Doctor, who do you work for?
Doctors are still with him.
Don't answer that question, deputy.
Don't do that to yourself.
Don't get me wrong, my friend.
Don't presume the district attorney is insensitive.
Don't stand on ceremony, come on in.
Don't sweat it, really.
Don't.
Dr. Bass is not on trial here.
Dr. Bass, could you please state for the record your full name?
Dr. Bass.
Dr. Rodeheaver is the chief psychiatrist at Whitfield.
Drag her into a nearby field...
Dream some good dreams, baby girl.
Drop the case.
Drove.
Duly impressed.
DWAYNE: All right, Billy Ray, step on back.
DWAYNE: Deputy Dwayne Powell Looney.
DWAYNE: No, sir.
DWAYNE: Yes, sir. I was.
Dwayne?
Ellen Roark. R O A R K.
Ellen, we won! Aren't you happy?
ELLEN: Good job.
ELLEN: Hi.
ELLEN: I get a little worked up.
ELLEN: I know, I know. Folks in town just can't get enough of this trial.
ELLEN: I'm not scared.
ELLEN: No! No! WINSTON: Come on.
ELLEN: Oh, shit.
ELLEN: Open! Open the gate! HARRY REX: Open the gate!
ELLEN: So is there any news on the guard who was shot?
ELLEN: Turn around.
ELLEN: Yup. Care for a beer?
Ellen.
Enter Mr. Reinfield's death squad, right?
ERA she woman, that would be an excellent activity for you this afternoon.
ETHEL: Bud?
ETHEL: Not a one.
ETHEL: Oh, Bud.
Evelyn, get me the state file on race statistics.
Even make you leader.
Even the federal government.
Everything's gonna be all right.
Excellent technique, counselor.
Except the Klan.
Expert witness for the defense.
Fact is, it just looks dead.
Finder of precedents, mystery woman of the courthouse.
Fire! Aah!
For some reason, I thought you were a liberal.
FOREMAN: Let's get on with it.
Fortunately for me, my lovely...
Forty sixth trial.
Four, which is a difference of 110.60.
Four.
FREDDIE: Boys, I am very proud to invite you to become soldiers...
FREDDIE: Burn in hell, Brigance!
FREDDIE: That's enough.
Free Carl Lee! Free Carl Lee! Free Carl Lee!
Free Carl Lee! Free Carl Lee! Free Carl Lee!
Fry Carl Lee! Fry Carl Lee! Fry Carl Lee!
Get in the house, pup. Harry Rex.
Get in there.
Get out right now.
Get over.
Get them, get them, get them.
Give Daddy some time to himself.
Go ahead, Dwayne.
Go ahead. Close your eyes, please.
Go get your stuff down there.
Go home and see my family.
Go see your wife and daughter, Jake.
Go.
Good butt.
Good day, men.
Good enough.
Good night, y'all.
Good speech.
Good.
Good.
Got to love the Lord for making things like that.
Guess that's not the best way to apply for a job, huh?
Guilty?
Guilty?
Guilty. Guilty.
GWEN [CRYING]: Baby, here's Daddy.
GWEN: He's coming home.
GWEN: Hi, Hannah. Ain't she so pretty. CARLA: Thank you.
GWEN: Oh. Ha ha ha.
Hannah, this is Miss Hailey.
Hannah, this is my daughter, Tonya.
HANNAH: Daddy, are you coming to Grandpa's too?
HANNAH: Mama, Daddy's home! Daddy's home!
HANNAH: Mama?
Hannah?
HARRY REX: Oh, dear.
HARRY REX: There's trouble.
Has he been eating any better?
HASTINGS: Get her in the car.
HASTINGS: He might, he might not. I don't know.
HASTINGS: Speed limit's 45, not 70, ma'am.
Hastings...
Have them call on Noose. We're gonna help him decide to keep this case in Canton.
Have you ever seen a man executed?
He always missed Oxford.
He did what I would've done.
He got family?
He has his license, his credentials are impeccable.
He heard you were looking to see us.
He leadeth me beside still waters.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures.
He murdered two people.
He should've known Noose'd pull him into chambers.
He should've learned that in law school.
He slaughtered those men in cold blood.
He told me he was gonna do it.
He told you what he was thinking.
He was walking up the stairs...
He was, therefore, legally insane.
He'd be out in 20.
He's a hero. You turn him loose.
He's a witness for the prosecution.
He's dead, Freddie.
He's mean, he's ambitious, and he's gonna eat this up because of the publicity.
He's not in. May I ask who's calling?
He's taken justice out of your hands.
Hear, hear.
Hell, no. I ain't moving.
Hell, yeah!
Hell.
Hello.
Her ****d...
Here you go.
Here, sweet pea. Carl Lee Hailey may very well spend his life in prison.
Hey, boys!
Hey, buddy.
Hey, Cora Mae, don't you worry. Hey, Wayne, how are you?
Hey, hey. Hey.
Hey, I'll be right back.
Hey, I'm one of the bad guys, remember?
Hey, I'm one of the bad guys, remember?
Hey, who's that?
Hey. Ha ha ha.
Hey. Hey, Jake. Hey, Jake, Carl Lee said you'd be coming.
Hey. No drinking. Not today.
Hi. You are...?
His conviction, on the other hand, will be a slap at us.
His name's Brigance. He's got a pretty good reputation.
How about the other?
How did you get here?
How do you do?
How is he?
How is she?
How much a case like this cost?
How much of that cash you offer my wife and kids?
How much you got?
How old is she?
How you doing? Good to see you. Excuse me.
How you holding up?
How you holding up?
How you think you going to get some money while you stuck here in jail?
How's Looney?
Howdy.
However, Mr. Hailey did personally apologize for his shooting me.
However...
Hundred points!
I ain't had nothing against them boys till they messed with my baby.
I ain't had nothing against them boys till they messed with my baby.
I ain't never seen you in my part of town. I bet you don't even know where I live.
I ain't saying, ******.
I am an upstanding, God fearing, respectable Southern woman...
I am sorry to tell you this, darling, but those two boys are in the ground...
I anticipated this.
I appreciate the practice, capitán, I do, but you could've left me a couple of clients.
I arrested them for the ****...
I assume that's the infamous change of venue motion under your arm.
I assume these boys carry your briefcase.
I believe in safety. I believe in justice.
I believe in your right to equal pay, equal work, to bear a child...
I booked you on the 9:15 to Gulfport. Economy, of course.
I called for you, Daddy.
I can pay maybe 10.
I can't come up with one way to bring him down. Not one.
I can't do another shot.
I can't get to this. Just take off your pants.
I can't remember.
I can't, Jake.
I cannot believe he didn't take you seriously when you warned him.
I could use your help.
I didn't call him, baby.
I didn't know. The record was expunged.
I do not believe in forgiveness, nor in rehabilitation.
I do. I'm hiring. Right now. Me.
I don't care. We are dealing with life and death here.
I don't get it. Why is he antagonizing the judge?
I don't know what to say, Ethel, I don't know.
I don't know, but...
I don't know, Reverend. Time's awfully tight here.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know. I don't know.
I don't like your politics, Roark, but you do have passion...
I don't wanna do nothing
I don't want the jury to see those pictures of the dead rapists. Can we keep them out?
I felt, um....
I figure there's a lot of people out there tired of all the raping and killing.
I gave them an excuse to kick me out...
I get any trouble out of you, I'm going to integrate this jail.
I got a friend, used to be active.
I got a little girl.
I guess I helped killed them.
I guess that would just have to be your loss, then, huh?
I guess you get to submit that brief after all. Have it on my desk by Tuesday morning.
I have no further questions, Your Honor.
I have no further questions, Your Honor.
I have no further questions, Your Honor.
I have nothing further, Your Honor.
I have nothing further.
I have some mighty interesting photographs of you...
I hold no ill will toward the man.
I hope I'm having a heart attack because then I'd get to sue you.
I hope you can believe that.
I hope you can believe that.
I intend to show the men and women of the South to look past color and see the truth.
I intend to show the men and women of the South will look past color and see truth.
I keep asking myself, What would Jake do? What would my father do?
I know it don't mean much now...
I know it don't mean much now...
I know that now.
I know you didn't want any of this to happen...
I know.
I made Ozzie bring me.
I married a sweet little sorority girl from Ole Miss myself.
I mean I don't blame him for what he did.
I need to live too.
I promise.
I remember how they fell.
I saw you march with Dr. King.
I see. Well, let me ask you something.
I seen you play for the Rams.
I set out to prove a black man could receive a fair trial in the South...
I spoke to Judge Dent...
I swore I will never enter another courtroom ever.
I think bullets bounced off the floor, caught me in the knee.
I think he's got a very good chance.
I think I really wanted him to do it.
I think I'll drop this brief off in Noose's night slot.
I think it's time you let me take you out to breakfast.
I thought you took this case because you wanted to prove...
I told you Carl Lee came by the office?
I tried to tell myself he wasn't serious.
I understand that, Jake.
I wanna get out of here just as much as anybody else.
I wanna help.
I wanna kill that ******.
I want you to listen to me. I want you to listen to yourselves.
I want you to picture...
I want you to stay.
I was his secretary for 20 years.
I was in a jam, you'd help me out, wouldn't you?
I was needed here, in that courtroom.
I was right outside that door right there.
I will not tolerate grandstanding in my courtroom.
I won't. I'm not gonna quit.
I....
I'd like to go back to hangings on the court lawn if we could.
I'll ask again. Can you recall testifying the trial of one Dan Baker?
I'll be right back.
I'll blow him away just like Carl Lee did.
I'll bring her around the side.
I'll keep in touch with you.
I'll never go in another courtroom again.
I'll think of something.
I'm able to perform a number of services.
I'm able to perform....
I'm afraid Dr. Rodeheaver's in court today.
I'm going home.
I'm going to go take a few questions.
I'm gonna be fine, you're gonna be fine. Okay?
I'm gonna leave you tied up here naked.
I'm gonna need a drink.
I'm gonna take you and this ****** lover to hell with
I'm gonna tell you what.
I'm here to apologize.
I'm here, baby. Daddy's here.
I'm not believing they don't have cars to sit on on campus.
I'm shriveling.
I'm so sorry, yes, you are the enlightened. Yes, you are.
I'm so sorry.
I'm sorry you had to come all the way up here.
I'm sure your congregation will be interested to know...
I'm taking Bud back to Oxford.
I'm terribly sorry, I've made a mistake. I thought you were one of the good guys.
I'm trying. Who do we have here?
I'm writing it down.
I've seen your picture in the paper.
I've thoroughly reviewed your brief request in that change of venue.
If a pretty girl like you wants to be a reporter...
If he gets it moved, he has a greater chance of color in the jury.
If this is a party, boys, where's the chips and beer?
If we get too many bad candidates, we're sunk.
If you don't give my wife that cash...
If you was on that jury...
Impotence?
In 1985, you testified that Dan Baker was legally sane.
In a ridiculous blue suit.
In all murder trials, it seems the insanity plea only makes up 1 percent overall.
In fact, I think it's impossible to find a fair and impartial jury anywhere in Mississippi.
In the storm?
Innocent! He's innocent!
Insane.
Is a slow coach.
Is it our minds?
Is it our minds?
Is that what it is?
ISAIAH: Listen, Carl Lee, we raised that money...
ISAIAH: Mr. Brigance...
ISAIAH: Reverend Agee? AGEE: Yes.
ISAIAH: Uh huh. Uh....
Isn’t that boy still in law school?
It ain't near over.
It bounced, Jake.
It could've been just the hurt talking, you know?
It does not permit vigilante violence, and he took the law into his own hands.
It is a pleasure, Ms. Ark.
It is quite clear that Carl Lee Hailey cannot receive a fair trial here.
It is vital that I admit the ****. I want the jury to know details.
It isn't easy saving the world one case at a time, but you stick with it.
It snaps and she falls...
It sure is a ******'s world.
It was an accident.
It was his little girl.
It was like I was outside myself...
It will remain nothing more than a reflection of our own prejudices.
It's a good thing Hastings was nearby and got here fast.
It's a notion so outrageous...
It's a rather brutal double homicide where you found the defendant legally sane?
It's a.... It's a family tradition.
It's all right, I haven't worn any in years.
It's been sitting on your desk for a week.
It's how you was raised.
It's not me.
It's not worth it. It's not.
It's okay now.
It's okay.
It's okay.
It's only not worth it if Carl Lee goes to the gas chamber.
It's the weapon found at the scene.
It's too late.
Jake Brigance.
Jake Brigance's office.
Jake Tyler Brigance, we agreed, you were gonna call the sheriff.
Jake, allow me to present Dr. Willard Tyrell Bass.
Jake, baby.
Jake, he shot them in cold blood.
Jake, he shot them in cold blood.
Jake, honey, are you okay? What happened to you?
Jake, I I can't do no life in prison.
Jake, they found Roark.
Jake, you're a good lawyer.
JAKE: All right, Lucien. Where the hell is this guy?
JAKE: And is it true that Pete Willard...
JAKE: But yesterday, a Dr. Rodeheaver...
JAKE: Bye, girls. WOMAN & GIRL: Bye, Daddy.
JAKE: Carla loves this house.
JAKE: Come here, girl.
JAKE: Coming, coming, coming.
JAKE: Doctor, would you explain to the jury...
JAKE: Get his ass, Ozzie! SHERIFF: What's in the case?
JAKE: How many appointments do we have today, Ethel?
JAKE: I thought I was gonna lose you.
JAKE: Let's go, Max.
JAKE: Mm hm.
JAKE: Morning, John. How are things at the electric company?
JAKE: Nice place How is it you'll drive an hour and half...
JAKE: Roark, meet Mr. Harry Rex Vonner...
JAKE: Sheriff Walls.
JAKE: Thank you, sir.
JAKE: Thank you, Your Honor.
JAKE: This morning. LUCIEN: Ha ha ha.
JAKE: This thing's ticking. What's in the case?
JAKE: Yes, Your Honor. Defense calls Dr. Willard Tyrell Bass.
JAKE: You say your son was 23 when he died?
JAKE: Your Honor, we have not yet filed.
Jake....
James Lewis Willard.
John Hinckley, for example.
Just a few questions, Your Honor.
Just a small part of my legal defense team.
Just curious.
Just keep us no more than one month behind on any vendor, please.
Just waiting for the opportunity to deliver God's justice.
Just waiting to pick yours up on appeal, Harry.
Just wanna make sure it's all safe in here.
Killed. It
KLAN [CHANTING]: Fry Carl Lee! Fry Carl Lee! Fry Carl Lee!
Klan would know what to do.
Ladies and gentlemen, your duty is clear.
Lay that thing back down there. Let's get the hell out of here.
Left to die.
Less than 50.
Let me ask you to get out of the car.
Let me get this straight.
Let me just get this straight here, Reverend.
Let me save you some time, Mr. Brigance.
Let's see, what else? Oh, genius runs in my family.
Let's take Dr. Bass, for example.
Like what?
Listen, this case is not over until the summation.
Local boy.
Lock the door behind me, Roark. I'll see you in the morning.
Look at State v. Cooper and State v. Roundtree.
Look at this.
Look here.
Look, I'm not gonna watch, I promise. Now strip, please.
Lord have mercy, Jake, you had a responsibility.
Lucien Wilbanks, third white man in Mississippi to join the NAACP...
Lucien, you're the best lawyer I've ever seen.
LUCIEN: Beautiful day, isn't it?
LUCIEN: Born alcoholic.
LUCIEN: Justifiable homicide will never hold up.
Luck of the draw.
Lunch.
MAID: Come in.
MAID: Good afternoon. JAKE: Good afternoon.
Make one hell of a team, Carl Lee.
Makes you wonder about the sensibleness of taking this case.
Mama!
MAN [OVER PHONE]: Get your daughter out of the house right now.
MAN 1: How you doing, Stan? MAN 2: Hey, how you doing?
MAN 1: Whoo! Yeah!
MAN 1: Yeah!
MAN 1: Yeah! Go, buddy, go!
MAN 1: Yeah. Yeah, I did.
MAN 2: Hey, Cheryl. Hi.
MAN 2: That baby's going scared. Ha ha ha.
MAN: Come on!
MAN: Get out. Come on.
MAN: Give me After you
MAN: Go.
MAN: Good luck.
MAN: Hailey's hired an attorney.
MAN: I need to talk to Jake Brigance.
MAN: Is it first degree murder? HASTINGS: I'm not sure yet.
MAN: Sheriff, will you give us a statement. I got no comment. No comment.
MAN: Uh, well
MAN: Unh! SHERIFF: I got him!
MAN: What can you tell us, sheriff? WOMAN: Can you tell us what happened?
MAN: What's going on?
MAN: You must be overwhelmed right now.
Man's heart is torn wide open, baby.
Max is dead, and you're next.
Max, come here, boy! Let's go! Come on, Max!
Max, come on now. Max, where are you? Come on, Max!
Max, come on now. Max, where are you? Come on, Max!
Max, let's go, boy! Come on!
Max!
Max!
Max! Max, come on!
Max. Come here, boy.
May our jury find that man loony as a proverbial fruitcake.
Maybe Buckley will cop us...
Me and Freddie was waiting for his hearing.
Me too, Jake.
Mickey Mouse.
Mine too.
MINISTER: The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want.
Mm hm.
Mm hm.
Mm hm. Is there anything else I should know?
Mm.
Mom!
Mom! Mama!
Mom.
Mommy's just upset because some silly man played a real bad joke, okay?
Mr. Brigance.
Mr. Brigance. In my chambers.
Mr. Buckley?
Mr. Hailey experienced a recurrence of a dissociative condition...
Mr. Hailey was sane.
Mr. Hailey, you are hereby ordered...
Mr. Hailey...
