The Client (1994) & A Time to Kill (1996)

In the final, sweat-drenched episode of “JOEL-ly”, we take an extended look at two of Joel Schumacher’s biggest hits, both adaptations of novels by bestselling author John Grisham. Joining us is attorney Laura Richardson, who shares some stories from her days working in Memphis and tells us what the novels and films capture best about practicing law in the southeast USA. Also, Dan shares his tangled web of possible connections between Grisham’s legal novels (“The Grishamverse”), while Jon sees potential in teaming up two specific (and, perhaps, unlikely) characters from these novels/films.
