A Time to Kill

A Time to Kill (1996) is a courtroom drama by Joel Schumacher you can watch online on iFILM. In a small Mississippi town, a father guns down the two men who raped his ten-year-old daughter.

Defending him is Jake Brigance, a young attorney played by Matthew McConaughey in the role that launched his career. His client, Carl Lee Hailey (Samuel L. Jackson), faces the gas chamber. Worse, the trial reawakens the Klan, and crosses start burning outside Jake's home. A sharp law student (Sandra Bullock) joins the defense while a cold prosecutor (Kevin Spacey) hunts for a conviction.

Adapted from John Grisham's first novel, the film turns the courtroom into a ring where the fight over justice and revenge matters more than the verdict. McConaughey's closing argument wins not with logic but with a single quiet image. Stream A Time to Kill (1996) online on iFILM.
