Editorial Review:
The exceptionally fine cast--Susan Sarandon, Tommy Lee Jones, J.T. Walsh, Mary-Louise Parker, Anthony Edwards, William H. Macy, Anthony LaPaglia, Ossie Davis, and Brad Renfro--goes a long way toward making The Client one of the more solidly enjoyable screen adaptations of a John Grisham southern gothic legal thriller. Teen-hearthrob Renfro is a natural, playing a kid whose life is in jeopardy after he witnesses the death of a Mob lawyer. Susan Sarandon is the attorney who decides to look after the boy; nobody can match her when it comes to playing strong and protective maternal figures (Thelma and Louise, Lorenzo's Oil, Dead Man Walking). Sarandon won her fourth Oscar nomination as best actress for this role, before finally winning the following year for Dead Man Walking. Author Grisham was so impressed with former window dresser/fashion designer/screenwriter-turned-director Joel Schumacher's work on this movie that he later asked him to direct A Time to Kill. --Jim Emerson

Just love Susan, Don't you?
2007-12-11 - Great movie, haven't seen it in a long time. But I'm excited that I own it finally!

DON'T YOU LOVE REGGIE?
2007-12-03 - Highly underrated story of rehabilitated lawyer Reggie Love (Sarandon) taking a case for $1 from a pre-adolescent Mark Sway (Brad Renfro). Mark and his younger brother have witnessed a gangland suicide which has severely traumatized the latter. Acting quickly, Atty. Love defends the boy against not only the mafia, but against a legal system,led by state political wannnabe Jones. Jones wants headlines and notoriety, Sarandon wants protection for Mark and his family. The movie includes a memorable confrontation right at the outset, and a grizzly discovery of a missing corpse, just seconds ahead of mafia intervention. Somehow, this 1994 vintage production never seemed to garner the support that this reviewer has always thought that it deserved. Perhaps the underlying theme of "equal justice" seldom being the case for the poor and uneducated raised again a subject too sensitive to the privileged. Anyway, see this entertaining movie and then form your own opinion.
