Michael Clayton

Screenwriter Tony Gilroy makes his directorial debut with this dramatic thriller about burned-out corporate lawyer Michael Clayton (George Clooney), who's built a career on cleaning up his clients' messes. When a guilt-ridden colleague (Tom Wilkinson) threatens the settlement of a multimillion-dollar case, Clayton faces his biggest challenge ever. Tilda Swinton (with her first Oscar win), Sydney Pollack and Michael O'Keefe round out the impressive cast.
10/10



Michael Clayton is an intellectually charged crime drama with intense dialogged confrontations executed with emotionally tense acting. A very sophisticated plot that accompanies white collar stature with a riveting real-life character balance that draws you in the depths of each individual. This film was amazing.
