A Time to kill is an American courtroom crime drama released in 1996 and is based on John Grisham’s novel of the same title. The film revolves around the chronicles of a ten-year-old girl’s rape. Two white men committed the crime against the young girl of the African-American origin. The rapists were arrested and a suit filed against them. However, the two are murdered by the girl’s father in the courtroom as they head to a hearing, and a deputy is disabled in the process. The move heightens racial hatred in the town and posits a potential conflict regardless of the verdict. A local white non-experienced, young Mississippi based lawyer agrees to defend the girl’s father. Sandra Bullock, Samuel Jackson, Matthew McConaughey, and Kevin Spacey are the star characters (Warner Bros, 2014). On the other hand, Ashley Judd, Kiefer Sutherland, and Patrick McGoohan appeared in supporting roles.
