Here are the discussion questions provided by our leader Denise Lishner:
- Why did Paul Newman’s law colleague give him this medical malpractice case? Why did he accept it?
- There were several surprising twists in this film. What surprised you?
- Why did he refuse to pick up the phone as it kept ringing at the end of the film?
- Paul Newman was a heavy drinker in real life as he was in this film. Do you have to experience in real life what a character experiences to really portray that character well?
