Brian Trenchard-Smith on MICHAEL CLAYTON
0 views • Sep 30, 2023
Tony Gilroy’s 2007 movie about a lawyer who finds himself hemmed in by corruption is a deep-dive into one man’s moral quandaries but it never forgets to ratchet up the suspense when necessary. Gilroy’s script is reminiscent of Chinatown in its complexity and character development. The actors, including George Clooney, Tom Wilkinson and an Oscar-winning Tilda Swinton, couldn’t be better.
