Analysis Of A Time To Kill The movie A Time to Kill, directed by Joel Schumacher, is about a ten-year-old black girl who is brutally raped and almost killed by two rednecks riding around in a pickup truck. The girl's father, Carl Lee Hailey (Samuel L. Jackson), kills the two men in cold blood on their way to the court hearing. It then becomes necessary for Carl Lee to hire an attorney, and he chooses young Jake Brigance (Matthew McConaughey) to defend him. The Ku Klux Klan then plan to get revenge on behalf of their fellow members who were slain. After many twists and turns in the movie, Carl Lee perseveres and is acquitted of the crime. The natural acting ability, particularly by McConaughey and Jackson, makes this film come to life. McConaughey and Jackson act their butts off. McConaughey is smart and sexy and physical, and he's got a wonderfully subtle rapport with Jackson, who gives one of the most wrenching performances of his busy career. I was absorbed by A Time to Kill, and found the performances strong and convincing, especially the work by Samuel L. Jackson as Carl Lee Hailey, the avenging father, and Matthew movie, mcconaughey, lee, jackson, carl, time, right, one, matthew, kill, hailey, brigance, way, two, samuel, performances, off, makes, jake, issues, hearts, film, father, convincing, acting, about, young, wrong, wrenching, world, work, wonderfully, while, vile, very
