The Lincoln Lawyer December 14, 2011

The Lincoln Lawyer (Brad Furman, 2011) will be screened on Wednesday 14th December at 7.30pm in the Studio Theatre. 

Matthew McConaughey stars in this legal thriller as a low-rent defence attorney named Mickey Haller. Most of the time, Mickey barely keeps his head above water, representing low-life clients and working out of the back of his car. He thinks he's landed the case of a lifetime when he's hired to defend a rich playboy (Ryan Phillippe) who stands accused of rape and attempted murder. But Mickey soon discovers that he's become ensnared in a twisted plot where no fee in the world is high enough to pay for the deadly workload, and his only hope of survival may just lay in his own skills as a long-practiced double-crosser.
