We kick off Women’s History Month with this often touching and funny corporate legal drama based on true events directed by Steven Soderbergh and starring Julia Roberts in the titular lead role, for which she won the Best Actress Oscar that year.
Julia plays a single mother/ex-beauty queen who gets a job with a law firm in Southern California run by Albert Finney’s Ed Masry, a role he received an Oscar nomination for. Through her work, she gets increasingly involved with an ongoing lawsuit involving the local power company and their questionable actions, allowing toxic chemicals to poison the water of a nearby small town – it all develops into what many consider to be one of the ultimate David Vs. Goliath stories of recent years.
Host: Geoff Gershon
Producer: Marlene Gershon
