Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This is David E. Kelley's third adaptation of Turow's novel—he wrote the 1990 film script before being replaced, making this his decades-long revenge on the material.
The 1990 film made Harrison Ford's Rusty sympathetic through sheer Ford-ness; Gyllenhaal's version weaponizes his own 'nice guy' image to keep you uncertain until the final frame.
