Matthew killed the last sense was epic ,he called the racist in the most brutal way ,Sam was doing want any other father would do .this movie feels like 70s ,racism but down south racism in living color

This scene in the movie touches my heart every time I watch the closing statement. Brilliant film & actor - Matthew McConaughey.

Careful 🌟

She lived for a reason

You can see the soulless look in Buckley's eyes. He does not give a single solitary fuck about this speech. Heartless bastard. And yet people like him actually exist. Much like Spacey himself. It's tragically fitting that a piece of shit person played a piece of shit character.

Sweet baby Jesus put a Trigger Warning on this thing.

In the actual event that inspired John Grisham to write the Novel A Time to Kill an African-american man (Willie James Harris) raped and tried to kill two white girls, 12-yo Marcie Scott and 16-yo Julie Scott. No need to imagine she's white. They were.

This is absolutely absurd. To suggest that the people of the south are so awful that a jury must picture a black little girl who was beaten and raped as a white little girl before they cared, is ridiculous. I have lived in the south my whole life. They are the friendliest people you ever want to meet. There is not one single person that I have met in the south that would not care if a black little girl was raped and beaten. This is why I despise John Grisham. He has made a living shitting all over the south and the southern people. It's a disgrace.

More than 20 years and I still remember the feeling when I saw that scene, it just stuck with me, best scene ever and Matthew is great!

You aren’t human if that scene doesn’t strike an emotional response

Now, imagine she's white...😢

Who came here after reading the book

🔮🧝‍♂️🧝‍♀️🧙‍♀️🧝🧙‍♂️🧙🪄

Best legal scripted closing scene ever. In dealing with racism. I remember the reaction and shock. I remember how it made me feel. And the uncomfortable silence after. By us, the audience. Even Samuel L Jackson did know it was coming nor the other cast. This was pure raw emotion. MCConaughey had during this scene. 😢

This is not the same as the book.

Nicely done ...I know a movie...lawyerly !!

What got me was him fighting not to cry for this girl :(

I love this scene. It was the only way they could see the crime without the skin colour. Beautifully acted

This book, then movie, are based on a true story. However, the truth is 2 black criminals broke into the home where 2 young girls lived. Their parents were at work and their 16 and 12 year old were at home alone. Sadly, both girls were raped by one of the intruders while the other one robbed their home. The rapist, worried about being identified, stabbed and beat both girls repeatedly. However, both survived.

I’m watching this movie right now.

I still get chills

Man even the judge was showing emotion right then.

Those werent acting tears….any man would cry imagining that shit

That’s sad that he had to say “Imagine if she was white” in order for them to realize that that was a little, HUMAN, girl they did that to. Unbelievable how they see us as animals.

This was is 3 or 4 movie

What is the name of the movie?

This such a great movie this scene made me cry just as the scene of the incident scene it’s sickening and heartbreaking that crimes like this actually have happened irl..

I loved this movie and Matthew was awesome in it

You know immediately as soon as he says "now imagine she's white", they immediately thought of their daughters, nieces, granddaughters, sisters, etc

In this movie...He starts by saying...IMAGINE...and it's only a movie..right!? Well, there was no imagination with a 14yr old black kid only whistled to a white woman!..what happened then to him!!!??? Yeah, imagined IF it was the color of skin different?.. That's right, lm talking about the REAL story of EMMET TEEL's boy... 😠 😡 😤 😣

Yes sir now imagine,she is White,that hurt them

"Now imagine she's white." Translation: "You people were so blinded by race and color you failed to realize at the end of the day...........this is a little girl"

Best Closing statement ever?? it's not bad but..... i'm guessing you've never seen And Justice for All!!

Why Americans aren't ashamed of their past?

"Imagine she's white." Coincidentally that was the actual case for the crime on which Grisham based his novel.

Not hard to imagine her being white, happens everyday to white girls, and the perps are usually Black...."

It doesn’t matter what color that child is! These beasts need to be effing stopped!!!!!

I read this book a time to kill was much more details in the book than the movie. This must have been the most difficult acting for Matthew

I remember when they threw beer bottles at me

the attorney in this movie has Phoenix Wright vibes (after t&t)

The book this movie is based on is a true story. Except in reality the victims were white and the perp was black.

This is one of the great scenes in film history. One I'll never forget almost 30 years later.

So I live in Texas 🤘and I like Matthew as a person but I don’t like his RomCom stuff at all but this, this I love!!

Racism is a cencer

Sad that it took that to change their minds but it was brilliant!
