The Lincoln Attorney You Have To Love

Both good and evil, with ease, guarding and stealing, flickering light and dark. I really have to love the lawyer Matthew McConaughey interprets. In life, he can be regarded as a complete success. A lawyer can ride in a Lincoln sedan, with the words innocence on the back plate, and he is domineering, arrogant and annoying. I am afraid that few people can do it; in his career, his The principle is that there is no principle, black and white take all.
Any swear words to describe him are not too much in the film, asshole (asshole) bitch (bitch) all kinds of characters. He has been described by the characters in it, and any compliment is also not too much. He was heartbroken when he was dealing with the case. When dealing with the case, he was "most afraid that his client would be innocent." He had the duty to protect the innocence of his client. Instead of destroying this kind of contradiction that even society can tolerate scumbags, in fact, he can't tolerate those people and those people will find other lawyers, but it is better to look at justice in his heart. When analyzing whether he is a bad person or a good person, it is fundamentally wrong. Each of us dare not say that we are a completely good person. We kill for survival, for work, and even more so. He said that "he doesn't care whether his client is guilty, but whether he is innocent", because guilty people are not necessarily innocent. He is the truest version of us. He won't try to make underworld people change their ways, but maintains the innocence in the hearts of innocent people. He even used gangster friends to be black and black, and used all the methods of gangsters to beat his client. He flattered anyone, including the prison guards. , including the woman who picked her up, and he helped her transfer to rehab instead of going to jail. He is really a bit of a hand and an eye, and he treats anyone with a cynical expression.
On the one hand, we love such naked people; on the other hand, we also love this kind of righteous people.
I like this movie.

The Lincoln Lawyer quotes

  • [Mick, armed with a baseball bat, discovers Louis has broken into his house]

    Louis Roulet: [sitting casually in Mick's home office] If you're wondering how I got in, I'm in real estate, so if I want to get into a friend's house...

    Mick Haller: No, we're not friends. You're my client. And I'm your lawyer.

    Louis Roulet: My lawyer. See, that's exactly what I wanted to remind you of. I'm about to go on trial, and yet I couldn't reach you. Now I find out where you were all day. Heard you tell Maggie.

    Mick Haller: You shit.

    Louis Roulet: You went to see Jesus Martinez. And I know what you talked about: Donna Renteria. You're right, Mick. I killed her. There. No reason I shouldn't tell my own lawyer since it's all confidential. Attorney-client privilege. Isn't that what you told me?

    Mick Haller: It's time for you to go, Louis.

    Louis Roulet: Alright.

    [He sits up, finishes his drink, and stands up. He notices a framed picture of Mick & his daughter Hayley on Mick's desk]

    Louis Roulet: [walks out into the living room] That's a cute picture of your daughter Hayley. She's very pretty. She's got soccer practice tomorrow, right?

    Mick Haller: [following Louis] Don't.

    Louis Roulet: [pretending to be confused] Don't what?

    Mick Haller: [gets in Louis' face] You think you're the first client to threaten me and my family? Huh?

    Louis Roulet: All I said was she's pretty.

    Mick Haller: Are you scared, Louis? Because where you are right now, you're in a very dangerous place.

    [He opens the front door and Louis leaves]

  • Mick Haller: [sitting on Maggie's front porch as Louis approaches him] Hello, Louis. My family's here.

    Louis Roulet: I know.

    Mick Haller: You bring your knife? My gun?

    Louis Roulet: Maybe.

    Mick Haller: Good.

    [pulls his new gun out of his coat pocket]

    Mick Haller: 'Cause I brought this. You've got one chance to turn around and leave.

    Louis Roulet: [stepping closer] And then what? You gonna keep coming back every night? Every day? Or just try to get me sent up to San Quentin like Jesus Martinez?

    Mick Haller: No. I'm not quitting until Martinez is free and you're convicted of murder. And when that needle goes in your arm, that will be me.

    [nods]

    Louis Roulet: [as a commuter train passes by in the background] Well, why don't you just shoot me right now?

    Mick Haller: I don't think I'll have to.

    [looks out towards the street]

    Louis Roulet: [turns around] Hey!

    Biker: It's Louis' car, man!

    [the bikers continue vandalizing Louis' car as Mick gets up and walks to the street]

    Biker: Come on, now. Get him up. Get up!

    [another biker grabs Louis and drags him out into the middle of the street]
