A Time to Kill: Summary and Response

Summary: At the start of the movie a young black girl is walking down a dirt road on her way back home from the grocery store. Two white males in a pick up truck drive up slowly behind her and aggressively pick up the girl and rape her. They drop her from a bridge, almost killing her. She is found almost dead and rushed to the hospital. The cops find the two males who rape the black and bring in them to jail. On the way to their hearing right outside the courtroom, the father of the black girl steps out of a closet a fires 3 shots. Two shots kill the two white males and the other shot wounds the officer escorting the convicts in to the courtroom. Later that day the police arrest Carl Lee. Then his attorney Jack Brigance comes to defend him. His plea is temporary insanity, to try and get him off. During the trial, a friend of the two white men named Freddie Lee Cobb joins the K.K.K. and starts a lot of commotion with in the community. Their first that they do is burn the house down of Jake Brigance. So then Jake's family have to leave town and go to his wife's parent's house because they are in great danger. The day before the verdict Jake meets with Carl Lee. Carl tells him that he is on of them; no matter what he does he is still


going to be white and think of Carl as black not just as a man. He says that no matter what you do that our daughters will never be able to play together. Carl tells Jake that he needs to find a way to take away all the race involved altercations and make the jury see it how he sees it. In the closing arguments between the defense and the prosecution the prosecutor D.A. Rufus Buckley says that if you take away all everything a man still killed two men and nothing can take that back. The defense attorney Jake Brigance's closing arguments he stated that during the duration of the case we have been blinded from the truth. He asks the jury to close their eyes and try and see the truth and look past all the other things that have been blinding them. So he tells the story of the girl that got raped and he goes on and on and on and when he get to the end when is about to finish the story he says, "no image this little girl was white". The next scene we see Carl Lee coming out of the courtroom a free man. The police then arrest the K.K.K. members including the corrupt police officer. At the end of the movie Carl Lee has a BBQ to celebrate his freedom. Then out of nowhere Jake shows up with his family because he thought that it would be a good idea if their kids played.
