A high-priced law firm brings in their “fixer,” Michael Clayton, when one of their lawyers has a breakdown, putting a multi-billion dollar class action suit in jeopardy. Clayton finds himself torn between his desire to do the right thing and a pressing need to pay off spiralling personal debts.

An in-demand writer following his screenplays for the Bourne films, Tony Gilroy made his directorial debut with this riveting legal thriller. Starring George Clooney and an Oscar®-winning Tilda Swinton, Michael Clayton intricately adorns its corporate skulduggery with an expressive formal ingenuity.
