TV: Erin Brockovich

Zitat

Erin Brockovich is an unemployed single mother, desperate to find a job, but is having no luck. This losing streak even extends to a failed lawsuit against a doctor in a car accident she was in. With no alternative, she successfully browbeats her lawyer to give her a job in compensation for the loss. While no one takes her seriously, with her trashy clothes and earthy manners, that soon changes when she begins to investigate a suspicious real estate case involving the Pacific Gas & Electric Company. What she discovers is that the company is trying quietly to buy land that was contaminated by hexavalent chromium, a deadly toxic waste that the company is improperly and illegally dumping and, in turn, poisoning the residents in the area. As she digs deeper, Erin finds herself leading point in a series of events that would involve her lawfirm in one of the biggest class action lawsuits in American history against a multi-billion dollar corporation.

sehr sehenswert imo.

nicht schlecht. kann man sich anschauen.
allerdings find ichs lächerlich, dass die roberts für diesen film einen oscar erhalten hat, nur weil es die jury bei pretty woman verabsäumt hat...

denn oscarwürdig war die leistung in dem streifen keinesfalls.

das "frogmouth" fräulein ist sowieso total overrated.
