“Roman J. Israel, Esq.” Movie (2017) On Starz — One Heck Of A Powerful Movie.
Another instance of me seeing a snippet of a movie on STARZ while idly channel-surfing and then deciding that it looks interesting enough to record to have a look at later. I am glad I did.
I like movies about lawyers and this was very much about one driven and strange lawyer, Roman J. Israel, Esq.
Very funny in parts but also rather arcane and deep in parts. So, definitely NOT for everyone. It helps if you are intrigued by what makes lawyers tick and have an interest in civil and human rights.
The whole movie takes place in an extremely intense 3-week period. Wow. I was riveted.
Reading the IMDb.com blurb I discovered that it was nominated for one Oscar — for best actor. I can see that.
So, just bringing it to your notice, if, you, like I, had not heard of this movie previously.
