CLIP DESCRIPTION:
When the PG&E lawyers present an offensively low settlement offer, Erin (Julia Roberts) makes them wish they never opened their mouths.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Julia Roberts stars in this legal drama based on the true story of a woman who helped win the largest settlement ever paid in a direct-action lawsuit. Erin Brockovich (Roberts) is a single mother of three who, after losing a personal injury lawsuit, asks her lawyer, Ed Masry (Albert Finney), if he can help her find a job. Ed gives her work as a file clerk in his office, and she runs across some information on a little-known case filed against Pacific Gas and Electric. Erin begins digging into the particulars of the case, convinced that the facts simply don't add up, and persuades Ed to allow her to do further research; in time, she discovers a systematic cover-up of the industrial poisoning of a city's water supply, which threatens the health of the entire community. Erin Brockovich was directed by Steven Soderbergh; Julia Roberts earned a $20 million payday for her work on the film, the highest salary paid to a female film star up to that time.

That look on Julia's face, like "try me, bitch!" She was EVERYTHING in this film!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lf1234 HELL YES!!!!!!
I was so proud of her for nailing this role.
After this movie, she was the IT girl💃🌹🌟
Right!
I could look people in the eye for a long time without blinking, which was useful.
When she gives that death glare, I’m screaming “you go Erin, put those idiots out in the streets.”
Respect to Erin in movie and real life who have stood up for the vulnerable.
Unfortunately I’ve recently watched videos that prove she was not who they portrayed in the movie.
I can't believe people think that she didn't deserve the Oscar. She was phenomenal! My fave.
Well people think Ellen burstyn should have won for requiem of a dream. I have not seen it but I heard it's an amazing performance. Burstyn won already too. That might have hurt her winning. They like to spread the awards out.
Ellen definitely should have won idc what anyone says😂
Ellyn should have won in supporting. Julia was superb!
It was between Julia and Ellen (who gives an undeniably heart-wrenching performance), but this was always Julia’s to win. People forget that when this film came out, she was America’s sweetheart with a bubbly, wholesome image and was typically only cast in romantic comedies. No one thought she could pull off a role as edgy as this one. But oh did she ever. She hit a home run, and it took everyone by surprise. It marked a turning point in her career and people started to really take her seriously as a dramatic actress.
@@chrispa9573 As good as Roberts was, Burstyn was better. That being said, Requiem for a Dream was a much more polarizing film, and many viewers didn't like it, and thus Burstyn was not as universally praised as Roberts. That's why Roberts got the Oscar. Just my 2 cents.
"By the way we had that water brought in special for you folks, came from a well in Hinkley"
*shocked pikachu face*
....
*puts down the glass without taking a sip*
BOOM 💥
One of the best lines right here.
Only way it could have been better is if she had waited for the lawyer to drink before saying that line...
what is about the water?
edit: read in another comments, water is contaminated with chromium 6.
The lawyer's refusal to drink the water after hearing it was from the well that they are contesting as toxic was enough capitulation for the utility company's gross negligence. She should have brought a gallon to court and asked the defendant lawyers to drink it in front of the court LOL.
actually the fewer the amount of water, the better the effect. If she won't even have one sip of it, it instantly becomes much scarier, than if she didn't want to bathe in it.
That would've been a Kodak moment, picture that! lol
Well in fact, this is what happened in real life. She told them, whilst in court, it was Hinkley well water and throughout the hearing the defendants lawyers didn’t take a sip :-)
Better yet, ask the lawyer's children to drink it
crank up the heat, make them *thirsty* in the he11 they and their clients created, out of greed, harming so many...and btw, they would have felt right at HOME, those devil's minions.
👿👹😈💀👺☠👿👹😈
Julia Roberts as Erin Brockovich = SLAY
This is one of my favorite scenes!
Me too!
Damn right, it is.
Okaaaay!! I am woman, hear me roar !!
JR is just playing herself
That sneer @ Ms. Sanchez as she's walking out the door. lol
Albert Finney's eyebrows are a whole other character in this scene
@Char Char Binks His eyesbrows and Peter Capaldi's eyebrows could get into a duel.
The water bit was the cherry on top. She couldnt have possibly hit them with reality any harder than that. They didnt want to drink that water and as lawyers they cant do anything about her serving them the tainted water because their entire disposition is that the water is harmless.
And according to something I found on the Net, this actually happened, although it was in the courtroom, not at a meeting.
@@castelodeossos3947 Really, they didn't want to drink it so they paid up.
that look when she leaves the room
that would be the famous woman "fuck you bitch" look......lol
Julia Roberts was disgusted with her
Daggers
Caught that too
Oh, you are an EPIC legend, Erin Brockovich! Julia Roberts was a BOSS here! Wow! And the real lawsuit! Now, that is bonafide, fearless leadership! Unsurpassed passion. Passion that fights, that sacrifices, that invests, that knows no end, that does not lie down until justice is done! RESPECT!
I would have let Miss Sanchez drink the water first before telling her where it came from.
Definitely. I mean, what would the woman do, sue her??
SirPlainview everyone else has been drinking it, she can too.
She was going to drink water to like get out of the situation. So she told her as soon as she held the glass. So she would stay focused on what she was getting into
Don't click on the link above me. It's bogus.
that would be epic
A person who until recently was unemployed with no skills just laid into those stuck up lawyers. Loved it.
The REAL Erin Brokovich played the waitress in the movie.
Just a lil FYI, thought it was cool.
+Jeff Vincent Oh wow, didn't notice!
Surprised Sniper IMDB is your friend ;)
Lesser known fact: the other person in the restaurant, with his back to us in one of the shots, is the real Ed Masry
@@jeffvincent6690 Also if you look closely at the nametag of the waitress Erin plays, you may be surprised to find her name is "Julia R." So they switched as a cameo joke.
Right!
Julia was iconic in this movie. Almost a quarter of a century and this movie still has me in awe
This is a message to all those who let unethical practices like this slip by in the company they work for. Where are you gonna be when your ship starts sinking?
But remember that the greedy cowards always try and jump ship early and leave everyone else to drown.
to whomever pays them.
Agreed, but this applies to all those who tolerate a total lack of ethics in for example the political parties they support too…
I remember in middle school our teacher showed us this in her class. Seven years passed this is still my favorite scene.
This script is tight.
I loved Julia Roberts in this EPIC MOVIE LOVED IT! SHE KILLED IT***
And she is damn gorgeous. What a figure she has!
This is why doing research and knowing what you're dealing with is the best weapon in life.
Exactly what the government hopes we DON'T become. Critical thinkers.
Right before everyone sat down, the lawyer asked the two who are not talking in this scene to just be there for buff, and to make them look tougher! Lol what a genius move. 😄
Those fake lawyers' reactions added a lot to this scene. And this also shows how far Erin has come with the other employees at the firm -- they now accept and admire her.
Her spirit in this scene is EVERYTHING. It's passion but also screams for love and justice. She believes in what she is advocating for so much so that her words don't become her words but they are her spirit's fire taking over her and making her shine as bright as she does. Anyone ever feel like that? How about recently?
This man is such a blessing to get into her life and look after her children.
Also, the scene where, the female lawyer is being condescending about the case and having all their information, especially their phone numbers. Erin rattles off a plethora of information, since she memorizes facts about the plaintiffs.
expression on Albert Finney is both classic and hilarious,one of the best acting performances of all time by Julia roberts
The only other scene that prolific that comes to mind is the Gregory Peck court scene in 'To Kill a Mockingbird'
"I think this meeting's over."
"Damn right, it is!"
Yeah! You tell her, Mr. Warbucks!
Now I know where I've seen before! Thanx!!!
Holy crap that is Daddy Warbucks! I never noticed!
😄😄😄😄😄
I watched this in theaters when I was about 23 or so. I fell asleep. Twice.
But after repeated viewings I have really come to appreciate the film and the acting performance from Julia Roberts and Albert Finney.
This is one of my favorite scenes from the movie.
Smoking weed before a sit down movie... LOL😅😅😅
What an scene! what a movie! Roberts does an AMAZING job.
I love this film and I only watched it for the first time yesterday. Julia is of course a phenomenal actress but I fell in love with Albert Finney. His little facial expressions without saying a word did it for me. 😂🙌
That LOOK she gave when she walked out, "I got YOUR game, bitch!"
Albert Finney played a great role in this. His body language etc throughout the movie is so on point.
"I want you to think real had about what your spine is worth, Mr WALKER" LMAO
Rest In Peace Mr Finney. You will never be forgotten 🙁
I took away from this scene that she had already drunk some of that water. The glass was already almost empty when she picked it up and they were all in there waiting for a while
I think it meant more that she didn't drink it when she was told where it came from. They're tried arguing for years that the water was safe and that the amount of toxicity in the water was miniscule. Her not drinking, just shows she didn't want to take the risk herself.
Great, great performance! She deserved the Oscar she won!👏👏👏👏👏
I remember watching this on a flight from New Jersey to Seattle in summer of 2000.
I dont cry at all but this movie made me cry like 4 times..... Its such an inspirational movie..... I love Julia Roberts she nailed it
Ahahahah, after all these years still a classic! You have to love this film and of course, Julia here made an Oscar-deserved work. Truly well deserved.
Julia Roberts' acting was great, but it was honestly far away from "oscar-deserved". She didn't stand a chance against Ellen Burstyn's frighteningly great performance in Requiem For a Dream. The Academy obviously just used this opportunity to give an Academy Award to a well-known actress. One of the biggest Oscar failures of all time!
@@HorstFuchs-cg3nuI disagree. Its should've been a tie between them

"We had that water brought in special for you folks..." GOTCHA!Best scene ever!! 😎
The best scene was with the PG&E lawyers. "We had that water brought in special for you folks. Came from well in Hinkley."
One of my favorite scenes. Along with her “numbers” scene 😂
Possibly the best scene in the movie, other than Erin and her biker boyfriend driving out to tell that client about the settlement. Priceless
Lol, Ed's trying to calm her down in the middle of the speech, to no effect... hilarious. :D
Julia is my fav actor. Her smile lights up the world. And she was such a smart and a badass woman in this s film.
Probably the best performance of her career!
Whole damned movie was awesome!
And the real Erin Brockovich too - had some appearances recently. They let her criticize the Biden transition team (a Dupont lackey for the EPA, right !)
Well, that escalated quickly.
I used to be much more assertive, like her. I miss that part of me. I got a lot more done and held my head higher. Good for her.
Let's hear it for the editors of this scene. Brilliant.
Meeting was over before it started 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
This is my favorite scene in the movie. Thank you Erin Brockovich for being such a badass
Owned. LOL
20 years time flies. She still looks great. And what a great scene. We brought that water over here special for you folks.......
I love how Julia Robert’s brought the brass and sass for the main character and enough heart for the viewer to sympathize with her. It’s such a different role for Robert’s and sue did Erin justice!
This is one of my favorite movies... it breaks my heart that there are still industrial companies polluting the earth and most of them are getting away with it
The fact that she didn’t even blink when she told her😂😂😂😂😂
God....I LOVE THIS PART. NOT ONLY DID SHE TAKE COMMAND....HER HAIR AND MAKEUP ARE FREAKIN' PERFECTION !!
Julia is a total babe!
The way Erin Looks at Ms Sanchez on her way out. There are actors, really good actors and truly great ones.
She's the utility's General Counsel, and asserts her clien did nothing wrong, then doesn't drink their water.
*Telling*
“By the way, we had that water brought in special for you folks…..came from a well in Hinckley!”
The icing on the cake!
"See, now that pisses me off..."
0:39 “Ernie! Get back to the plant! Vamos!” George Lopez
Man Julia Roberts took this movie to a whole other level. It's like she was on a personal mission to scare the hell out of every one of these people. YYYYYYAAAAAAAASSSSSSSS. GIIIRRRRLLL SLAY IT!!
01:12-01:35
The look of panic on her face was priceless.
The real Erin Brockovich was so good at taking on big corporations she was 11/11 in all cases she pursued.
Her reputation got so good when the corporation heard she was onto them. They instructed the lawyers to settle whatever she requested before it got to a court or before she dug too deep. She won half a billion dollars in settlements in her life-time without a law degree.
In fact, she won cases as just a legal clerk she won over $10 million in commissions from the cases which are more than some law-firms get without a legal degree.
After winning this case, a lot of law firms she applied at that turned her down, begged her to come work for them.
To this day, a lot of lawyers whenever they catch wind that Brockovich is looking into something, most start digging cause they know she found a gold-mine.
1:19 Surprise!!! Taste the toxic water ☠️
Good movie, Julia Roberts made it unforgettable.
Best scene ever!!
"The case was settled in 1996 for US$333 million, the largest settlement ever paid in a direct-action lawsuit in U.S. history. Masry & Vititoe, the law firm for which Brockovich was a legal clerk, received $133.6 million of that settlement, and Brockovich herself was given a bonus of $2.5 million.[8]" - WIKI
Her firm received 133 million.. she got 2.5 million (~2%)… I was hoping she was going to received more.
2.5 mil is alot of money still. The ones who suffered deserved it more.
Julia Roberts has turned in some awesome performances throughout her career, but I think this may have been her best.
She should’ve told her after she drank it… 🤣🤣🤣
No, the whole point was to tell her BEFORE she drank it. She demonstrated that given a choice, she didn't want to drink water from Hinckley. She knows the water is poisonous.
Probably the best monologue of her entire career so far.
I love this part when Erin (Julia) shreds PG&E. I was going to believe that the woman would've drunken that glass of water until she told her it came from the well.
and if as PG&E CLIAMED that nothing was wrong why didnt she drink it
john cameron That's pretty much the whole point of that line...
we all hate big companies and arrogant lawyers. She wiped the floor with them,. Julia was excellent and loved Finney in this film.
God... I never get tired of watching Albert Finney.
Phenomenal acting by Julia here... just amazing. She was this way in the entire movie.
RIP Albert Finney. Very good job playing the "straight man" to Erin.
Great in 'Network', also.
The best performance from Julia Roberts
Julia’s best performance in the few good movies she has made.
That searing glance by Erin walking out….. intimidation and vengeance. Perfect!
This is how she won her oscar! Masterful
Never knew Erin Brockovich was an indirect Brooklyn 99 prequel....
Social JUSTICE! *high five*
I love this character. 🙌
I 💙💙💙 this scene so much that I've actually memorised it, take that PG & E..!!
Epic monologue. All new actresses should be made to watch this scene, this is how you deliver an incredible monologue!
Also the men actors as well cause the younger men cant act very well over half of em sucked..
The one thing keeping this from being one of the greatest movie moments EVER is that bitch lawyer not drinking the water because Erin dropped that bomb too early, but still Julia Roberts nailed it.
It maybe would have been very effective if she had already taken a drink. However, I feel by telling her it was from a well in Hinkley, and then her not taking a drink, spoke volumes and was incredibly powerful, too. It demonstrated to everyone there that they obviously wouldn't want to drink the water, so why should they expect the Hinkley residents to?
True, good point.
You also run into potential legal troubles when you essentially poison their drink. Not saying is a sure winner, just saying it is certainly a possibility that is not worth the risk. But like you said, her putting down the drink was just as effective if not more.
+Olbohn Thanks, guys! Yes, just so powerful that she hesitated and didn't take the drink. That made it obvious to everyone there, including herself, the unwillingness and danger of drinking contaminated water. And, if it was not safe for her to drink, why should she and the other lawyers and PG&E Corporate expect the Hinkley residents to drink it and/or not be compensated adequately for all of their health issues?! Just such a powerful scene...not just by all that was said, but everything that was implied.
That's called poisoning and would have put her at legal risk and its good she warned her about source and content of water. It was up to the bitch now to drink or not.
I like to imagine that in all future negotiations, Ed pointed her in a direction, and then just sat back with his feet up and let Erin rip them to shreds lol
i think we should ask the primary company to re release the dvd
This is why we need the EPA that 45 trashed
The exchange of looks at 1:45, just perfection 👌
Epic stare!
Best speech ever!!
i absolutely love this scene! julia roberts killed it!
Who's the actress sitting to Julia's left at 1:23? The stare she is giving the other lawyers from the top of her glasses is fantastic.
Who needs a calculator to multiply by a hundred?
You just add two zeros. For example 67*100= 6700 It;s easy :)
+Flush Royal In law school, one of my professors said something like "you didn't go to med school because you were afraid of blood. You didn't go to business school because you were afraid of numbers."
Dude Making.A.Point.
Me
Apparently they used to be so greedy they forgot how to add and multiplicate money. So they need a calculator to do it. How tragic
0:56 "I want you to think real hard about what your spine is worth, Mr. WALKER". I see what you did there...
I just got done watching this movie.
loved it!!!
Same here
She should have chugged that water like a boss 🍺
"Damn right it is." lol
Julia’s best movie performance ever I think.
Such a great movie and incredible performance by Julia Roberts.
He can play ANYTHING.
