   Jul 26, 1996 · “A Time to Kill,” based on the first novel by John Grisham, is a skillfully constructed morality play that pushes all the right buttons and arrives at all the right conclusions. It begins with the brutal rape of a 10-year-old black girl by two rednecks in a pickup truck.

   Is a time to kill a good movie?

   • I was absorbed by “A Time to Kill,” and found the performances strong and convincing, especially the work by Samuel L. Jackson as Carl Lee Hailey, the avenging father, and Matthew McConaughey as Jake Brigance, the lawyer. This is the best of the film versions of Grisham novels, I think, and it has been directed with skill by Joel Schumacher.

   Is a time to kill a better novel or an adaptation?

   • "A Time to Kill" is one of the few examples where I can't decide whether it's a better novel or an adaptation, although I return to the film more often, simply because it requires less time and leaves an equally strong impression. Somewhere in Mississippi, a ten-year-old black girl was raped and otherwise brutally abused to the brink of death.
