Content

Toronto-based writer/filmmaker and host of Junk Filter Podcast Jesse Hawken returns to discuss Alan J. Pakula's 1993 John Grisham adaptation 'The Pelican Brief'. We defend the film as an enjoyable, all-too-rare 90's star vehicle with Pakula running solidly on autopilot, discuss the script's often laugh-worthy dramatics, and dig into Hollywood's brief, idiosyncratic love affair with Grisham as a storyteller.
