The Lincoln Lawyer

Like you put some chemicals in water and you have a lawyer.

I watched The Lincoln Lawyer literally the night before this.

The show or the movie? The movie for the first time.

It was great.

The composer, since we're in the middle of Synthwave Autumn, the composer is Cliff Martinez.

He also did all the music for Sex, Lies, and Videotape, The Limey, Traffic, Narc, Havoc, The Lincoln Lawyer, Spring Breakers, Only God Forgives, The Neon Demon, and Game Night.

We have a cast of Ryan Gosling, Carey Mulligan, Bryan Cranston, Albert Brooks, Oscar Isaac, Christina Hendricks, Ron Perlman, and Russ Tamblyn.

Hawk, do you remember the first time you saw this film?

Yeah, it has that feeling, for sure.

The opening credit song Night Call by Kavinsky was suggested by editor Matt Newman.

The song was also used in the 2011 film The Lincoln Lawyer with Matthew McConaughey, which Drive costume designer Aaron Benach and Bryan Cranston, and composer Cliff Martinez worked on.

So they pulled the same song.

Yeah, when I was looking through 2011, I realized, wow, it's kind of an incredible year.

Just to list it off, Moneyball, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2, as aforementioned, Crazy Stupid Love, Drive, The Untouchables, Captain America, The First Avenger, Pirates of the Caribbean, On Strange Tides, The Help, Bridesmaids, Thor, The Cabin in the Woods, X-Men First Class, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Source Code, Limitless, Horrible Bosses, Shame, Super 8, Cars 2, Rio, Rango, No Strings Attached, Friends with Benefits, Midnight in Paris, The Lincoln Lawyer, The Hangover Part 2.

Yeah, I remember

that

Of course, he was also Eddie in Eddie and the Cruisers.

I saw him in The Lincoln Lawyer, a brand new movie with Matthew McConaughey.

And Paré is in there.

And Paré's got to be, what, like late 50s now? He still looks good.

It means nothing to me.

Francis Fisher plays Rose's mother, Ruth DeWitt Bakuder And Yeah, she sucked too She just A formally rich person desperate to keep her station in life Is a really good equation for a piece of shit But she did good she does often I don't know about often but the movies I've seen her in she always plays a wealthy mother the other film I recall her in she was the mother in Lincoln Lawyer and Lincoln Lawyer is a Matthew McConaughey film it's been out long enough if you've never seen it then spoilers tough shit he plays a lawyer who's kind of a Rubs the edges of the law a little bit.

And he takes on a case of, like, a rich ecology guy for, I think, murder or something like that.

And then as he's going through the case, he realizes that the guy did do it.

Okay, that movie was funny.

Lincoln Lawyer, not my thing.

Joy to the World, most certainly not my thing.

Oh, she plays Lana Lang in, uh, Superman & Lois.

Okay.

The Lincoln Lawyer, Bernie, Killer Joe, which I hadn't heard of, The Paperboy, which I had not heard of.

Paperboy, I think, had the lowest reviews of all these.

Then he released Mud, Magic Mike, Dallas Fires Club, for which he wins an Oscar.
