What’s the Erin Brockovich movie about?
Erin Brockovich (Julia Roberts from Pretty Woman, Notting Hill and My Best Friend’s Wedding) is a mother of three kids. She gets into a car accident, in which she is not in fault, but her lawyer Ed Masry (Albert Finney fom Tom Jones, Annie and Murder on the Orient Express) still loses the case because of her attitude in front of the court. She manages somehow to convince him to give her a job as a legal assistant in his law firm. Erin uncovers some medical records placed in real estate files. She starts to investigate with Ed’s approval, and she discovers that a huge firm is hiding the contamination of the water to the consumers. A local community, Hinkley, is particularly affected, the contaminated water is causing devastating illnesses among its residents.

This one of my favorite parts of one of my favorite movies. This part grounded the fact that yes EVERYONE believes and knows that the water is contaminated. It brings up the very real notion that a billion dollar a year company would rather let people die than admit any wrong doing. Outstanding movie every step of the way.
That is how 90% of big American companies were built.
Dupont is another one that destroyed lives for money.
And this is why regulations are so important, you can't trust the fox to guard the hen house.
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
And it probably happens way more often than we know.
$20 million divided by 400 is fifty thousand per family, a medical bill from any of these illnesses is $200K.
Hence the, "That isn't shit when you split it between them."
At least
You didn't even factor in the 1/3 cut that lawyers take.

Albert Finney was my favorite part of this movie. He doesn’t steal the spotlight at all from Julia Roberts but also manages to be so so good. his character is so funny and adorable!
I pissed my pants laughing by seeing the power play in this scene. PG&E comes in with four people, Ed is calling two just random employees for just sitting there and pretending to be important too.
It worked!! :)
Leverage comes in many different ways.
Ed as an experienced lawyer knew full well that PG&E was simply pulling a intimidation tactic and he also knew he couldn't afford to allow them to think it had worked. It really was a laughable pissing contest that they forced him to play. The real beauty and point of this scene is that in the end the real power in that room didn't come from a strutting lawyer, it came from Erin's righteous fury in knowing that PG&E was trying buy their way out of the high cost they created for potentially hundreds of people so cheaply. Because no matter how powerful or educated they might be Erin's simple math and pointedly calling them out for their legal and moral accountability to their clients effectively shut them down.
And it worked😉😉😉😅 Those two actors did so well without saying a word💪💪✔️😃
PG&E came in with three lawyers, FYI... If you're talking about that mailroom clerk, that was a completely separate timeline in the movie.
The fact that the lawyer wouldn't drink the water makes me happy. That little psychological landmine would really hurt their case in their own mind. If only a little bit.
Yes, whenever I see it, I love it. But I always think, if she had waited just a half second more before saying it, it could have been even more dramatic with her spitting it out all over the table, and start coughing. Since it's not really that water, it's all harmless fun and games.
wouldve been funnier if she let her drink before saying it lol
One of the outstanding lines in this movie, “We had that water especially brought in for you from Hinkley!” How to introduce the element of doubt and win your case! Deliciously brilliant! I can never think about this movie without remembering that line! It always makes me laugh!
@@Terra_Lopez Erin saying it was from a well in Hinckley BEFORE the lawyer took a sip, was to show what she would do if she had a choice of drinking Hinckley water, or not. The corporate lawyer showed that she would not knowingly drink water from Hinckley, because she knows it's contaminated. Erin was not going for the drama, she was trying to prove that point, and she did.
Julia earned the shit out of that Oscar.
For what, settin' people straight with that mouth? She does that at the register...
@@Imtoobizzy1123 shut up
Definitely as a lot of people bring up Ellyn which was a great performance I just think Julia had more scenes in this movie than Ellyn did which helped.
When a good/great actress meets an A+ level screenplay. Actresses must have been falling over themselves trying to land this role.
Notice, he's not really bitching about the little time they spend together, that's just the pretext. He's complaining about not feeling loved when she IS with him. Sorry, that's on her, man or woman, makes zero difference. If your expression isn't there, you got nothin'.
You've got to look at the weight of the burden that she was carrying. She had no one to hand it off to & even if she did, (Ed was her boss, not her co-worker) she was already too emotionally invested in the case. These folks had become like family to her & she knew NOBODY was going to fight as hard as her to make PG&E pay for their transgressions! NOBODY! At this point she'd become like a pit bull with a pot roast & PG&E was gonna pay in full. He should've stuck it out.
Exactly, intimacy wasn’t there.
@@Beezlie727 No. If he is that important When she is With him she needs to focus on him. It's not about when or how much you are away from your SO but your focus when you are with them. Yes the job is important. And yes she can stay in it. Even with the amount of time. But she needs to carve out time that she focuses on the relationship. Otherwise he is just a live in maid and childcare that sleeps with her.
Blah blah blah. Zzzzzzzz.
@@Beezlie727 How long would you have stuck it out if you had waited for someone to say something or do something nice for you?
That dead ass stare down after saying the water was from one of the toxic wells is an amazing moment in the film
I love how the two employees at the firm, who in some way represented all of those who disrespected Erin for so long, got to see her power, intelligence, and righteous indignation at work!!!
One of the best parts of this movie, is the waitress serving in the very beginning of this movie: the real Erin Brockovich. True story!
I never knew that!
Also as an in joke the waitress is called Julia
@@ModernGoddess81 Yes, she was part of the cast.
@@queenmedusa1977 Producers did that on purpose.
@@sergeantmasson3669 No duh, that's why it's an in joke.
That’s my favorite scene when Erin goes off and when she puts the other Lawyer lady in her place about missing information
The death stare at 1:33 is EVERYTHING!
Luigi did it better.
Julia roberts is still one of the most naturally good looking women in Hollywood
Nah, I'm going with Caitlyn Jenner.
@@delmar2169 They both have had a bit of work done. 😂
And she is from Smyrna GA too.
She's still beautiful today. Lovee her movies. My favorite actress ❤️
"I think this meeting is over" i can't enough of this movie LIKE THE "GODFATHER" I CAN WATCH THIS MOVIE AGAIN AND AGAIN 👍👍👍
She should have let that lady drink the water first, then tell her where it came from.
Ooo nice lol
Savage...I like it!
No, this was much better. The bodylanguage by picking up the glass with water said she was thirsty. When she put the glass back down she said she didn't thrust the water from the well she was claiming to be nothing wrong with. If she let her drink it this wouldn't be the case.
Plus, she was probably bluffing about the water.
She obviously was bluffing indeed. It just makes it so much better, it shows her lawyering skills.
This movie made me fall in love with Julia Roberts. The entire cast and crew deserves every award and recognition they received for this movie
I felt sorry for George, he was a good man.
in real life when she got the 2 million she kicked him to the
curb like a used rubber
That‘s Harvey Dent before he became an attorney himself.
The real criminality here is that PG&E made no attempt what so ever to prevent chromium 6 from escaping into the environment. I dealt with it for years and it was never a problem. Even without any treatment Cr+6 will spontaneously reduce to harmless Cr+3 under normal conditions in a few hours or days for a large batch. PG&E had to have been dumping Cr+6 waste continuously. It is one of the easiest and cheapest metals to remove from water.
A hell of scene... that scene when she stared at the glas.. brilliant!
Nothing worse than a lowball offer in any walk of life. This scene captures that so well!
This is on point!!!… I have taken more L s in my life than anyone has ever known over and over again… while everyone around me was granted all of what I kept praying and crying for… I made sacrifices no person should have to… and was disrespected and lied to and used and embarrassed and laughed at and cussed out and left behind… controlled and told I had to be what someone else said I had to be… and that I wasn’t allowed to marry whom I loved because of multiple reasons… I wasn’t fit ir eligible to work in certain places because someone else said so… these were not my thoughts and they weren’t my wishes dreams aspirations or my goals… I didn’t deserve what happened and have repeatedly had to explain myself over and over again when I shouldn’t have to
I hope things are better.
Anything & everything worth having or achieving, requires some level of 'fight' or struggle..
And often nobody arround us gets that.
She’s savage. I love it.
I love this woman, guts and intelligent God bless her 🙏
I remember the reaction in the theater about the water. Everyone just exploded in clapping.
Should had let her take a sip.😅
@@me109cito5It was the classier move to warn her beforehand. But I won’t front - I wouldn’t have minded if she let her drink some first.
ABSOLUTELY AWESOME LOVED HIS GIGGLES
0:26 He knows exactly what's about to come and is gonna enjoy every second of it lol
The man is feeling neglect, lack of attention and intimacy and love - man or woman, people need that in a relationship; people want to feel like they are a priority.
It just don't make no sense how great Julia was in this film. She showed how much of a powerhouse she is here.
I would’ve told her after she drank it😂
The water wasn’t really from Hinkley - it was a very clever piece of improvisation from Erin. But the woman didn’t know that! She had a choice: drink the water to save face and continue negotiations - but put her life at risk in the process.
Or not drink the water to protect her health, thereby admitting fault. Which is why she ended negotiations.
Very clever. Love Erin. Love this movie.
@@nickn8502 i think that was a lie on her part to drive the point home. If it was really that water from a known tainted source, Erin could be charged with Attempted Poisoning, maybe Attempted Murder, maybe her boss too for Accessory. Of course, charging her would most likely make PG&E reveal how the water was tainted in the criminal trial. While Erin would likely go to prison, PG&E would still get sued and have even more irrefutable evidence: The transcript, Judge, Jury, Defense Attorney, Prosecutor et cetera from Erin's trial all can be subpoenaed or legally accessible in a related civil trial. Media possibly could paint her as a martyr, giving up her freedom for the thousands of clients harmed.
Governor of the state in question in an effort to assure reelection or brownie points in that aim would consider pardoning Erin. After all pardons have been granted to far less worthy people for even less noble reasons.
That why you not Errin
@@chrismc410 A simple point made in the movie. Why clutter it with speculations?
In my humble opinion this is Julia Roberts finest acting….. she is in the top echelon of actresses. I love her in eat pray love also….
I actually find myself in a similar position to George. No kids, never married, always lived a very free and adventurous life, and been in a relationship with a single mum for 6 years now. I have given a lot, and have gotten very little in return. My girl's now teenage kids have now said they've never liked me, and just want their mum back. All the years of going to soccer games, doing school runs, paying for overseas holidays, attending dance recitals etc...for nothing. It's a mistake I won't make again.
That’s just teenagers being teenagers. My parents divorced when I was young and my mom remarried. My stepfather is a wonderful man but as a child/teen I was confused and hurt from a broken home so I took my frustration out on the person I thought separated my parents (my stepdad) but as an adult now I regret the way I behaved and I love and respect my stepdad so very much!
My dude, your post really touched me. I don’t think there’s anything a whole lot worse than having people that you love spit it back in your face. Let me say this, don’t give up on finding the right type of young lady. They’re out there my dude they don’t grow on trees. I think if I were you I’d find a girl that love Jesus more than anything. If she loves Jesus and she’s going to love you. I must admit your post truly text me dude. Soon as I’m done with this postmaster prayer for you God bless you man.
@@jen_gem I got a tell you right now on your post, much respect! Text big people to admit that maybe they’ve had an error in judgment somewhere along the way.
@@Americanpatriot-zo2tk The girl I mentioned is a devout Catholic. I'm an Atheist. Dating a religious person isn't a mistake I'll make again
My dude, I do understand. Now I have to be a believer in Yashua Messiah. I understand your position and the reasons you have it. Obviously, you couldn’t really date a Christian girl because Christians are only supposed to date Christians. I’m not sure that I can give any advice outside of those parameters. From what I saw in your post oh dude to me he seem like a good guy. I think what I’m really trying to say is that I hope you don’t end up being alone Because you had a bad experience. Shanice girls can be terrible but in all fairness some of the guys are awful too. Good girls don’t grow on trees. Obviously, as a Christian I would like to make one suggestion there’s a book called evidence the demands a verdict By Josh McDowell. He also was an atheist but when he got to looking at the common sense the logic in the truth of the Bible that’s when he became a believer. I am not giving you this post to try to Convert you so to speak. That always ends up being the area where Yahweh comes in. I would like to say this though again your post really hit me right in my heart dude and I’ve had a few bad experiences myself I just I don’t know what it is dude I think you’re a good guy just wanted to wish you the best of luck there are people out there that are good but you know it’s very very hard for a man or woman to find that type of mate. In any case just want to say God bless you do I hope you and your family a happy healthy and safe and as always greetings from the state of Kentucky!
My favorite part of the movie
I can watch this million times and still it’s like the first time always her best movies Julia Roberts ❤
julia's stare down is epic.
She’s amazing!!!
Wow. If the roles were reversed that guy would be saying the same thing to Erin.
She is so excellent so memorable in this bit, sure LOVE to have Erin or Julia in my corner ,such passion.!
Julia Roberts' best role.
Greatest scene in movie history!
George, stay with her, she gonna get a 2 million dollar bonus soon!! lol 😆
Then he went on to save Los Angeles from invading space aliens.
@KR show some respect - you'd be some space alien's lunch if it weren't for him!
Then went on to become the President of the United States of America
@@sreemoyeechakraborty8086 in what movie did he play the President? Are you confusing him with Bill Pullman in Independence Day?
@@obbzerver olympus has fallen/london has fallen
Yeah but then he got half his face burnt off and killed some people after flipping a coin...
It's so fun to realize the man that plays Ed Masry here in this movie is the same man that played Daddy Warbucks in the movie Annie from the early 80s.
She should have let Ms Sanchez take a sip of that water before she told it was from Hinkley
“Stay” that’s all one’s got to do! 4:26👌🏻
The best smile out there. Hands down.
Applause for Erin Echart. 👏 👏 👏 👏
These two scenes are fantastic ! At least George eventually did hang in there, and saw the end result of all of Erin's labor.
This reminds me of what my infant daughter and I went through while at All Children's Hospital in St.Petersburg, FL, when she died after the medical staff administered fentanyl and KCl IV drip to her. Trying to stay alive after, has been a challenge, and that is no joke. There is much more to what has happened in my life prior to her birth, during the pregnancy, and after she died. She is buried in Florida National Cemetary, Bushnell, FL. (Miya Jane Justeson 2/23/2007-3/18/2007) ...I need legal help...
I am so sorry for your loss. I know how much it hurts to lose a child. My middle daughter was stillborn when my wife was 7 months pregnant. That was in 1994 and it still hurts to this day.
That woman knew EXACTLY what was in the water 😝
She found someone she could trust around her kids and to take care of them, which allowed her to focus on the task at hand, while recieving attention and notoriety. She had to use him. Theres just no other way to look at it...Finally Dr. John makes perfect sense. Head was in a bad place.
Using words right is not common, it always gives you cathartic high when you see the right words win. It is never as simple as it looks.
I would have let her take a sip of water before I said anything.
Man went from leaving julia roberts to saving the planet.
We had that water brought in special ..
Erin's earnings are more than 7 persons settlements in the end...
This was a great movie, but she should have let the lawyer take
a drink of water first before, she told her the water came from a well.
There must be millions of us guys in love with this lady 😍what a lovely smile
Her home life went south dramatically and immediately. She was better off with him, and he with her, if it were not for the fundamental clash in beliefs on what is essential. They were both excellent people, though? Both doing their best?
Kick-ass clip!
PG&E being humiliated to the max.
Great movie
truely great mastery work of life made in to movie
Best part of the whole movie.
should have let her drink the water first then tell her where it came from.
I just wish she had waited till the woman had drunk before telling her the water was from HInkley
I liked that movie and that character.
In the aftermath of East Palestine, Ohio, this movie should be aired 24/7 on a few channels.
"Hereee kitty, kitty, kittyyy" - David Letterman
Damn right Erin!!!
Its actually scary how expensive health care is in America soo glad i dont live there they charge for every single thing
I'd have taken that slug. I mean, one sip isn't gonna do real harm. You're standing across the table from an opponent that has just demonstrated how strong her case is. You gonna show weakness? Not me, man.
Sure. OK.
sip all you want, your case will still be weak.
50,000 dollars per plaintiff.
What a ripoff
She really treats him like shit under the pretense of being a "strong independent woman"
The world is full of ignorant women like that these times, luckily for him she was a 'strong independent SMART woman'. He was totally right for communicating/fighting over the fact he wasn't happy in the relationship he really wanted to work though.
The bigger crime isn't the shit PG&E pulled, its the fact the sum wouldn't have even needed to be that big if the US had a healthcare system that wasn't run by the insurance companies.
Oh no. SJW spotted
@@leo_mas_922 Dafuq?
Not wanting to think about medical debt makes you a SJW?
Wow, the US is really fucked up if people like you really think that way...
They should have settled no less than 5 BILLION.
When did Mr. Warbucks get so much hair?
That job gave her 2 million dollars what are you giving her?!
what? don't you like that water? drink up
Julia Roberts is amazing but who's the actress sitting to Julia's left at 1:11? The stare she is giving the other lawyers from the top of her glasses is fantastic.
She blamed the wrong decision in men for having children by them …once can be bad luck but anymore the buck stays at home
My man ain’t no simp
My God those captions are annoying.
Priceless 😂
All she was asking him to do was stay, give it a little more time and be patient, she was working on something that actually meant something to her. And sometimes it takes a man to have to "man up," and support his gf or wife. I mean think about it, how many of us would actually quit out job if our significant other asked us to?
You'd be surprised, apparently, what people will do when they don't feel appreciated or even fundamentally respected. Props to him for leaving, they aren't his kids. If they were, I'd say you have to do that for the kids, but they are not.
Shes so beautiful in this look
I know it’s a different genre and the plot is nowhere near a like but Jackie Brown reminds of this film a lot. Dunno if it’s just me.
I would have let drink the water first.
Best scene! 😮 😂😂😂😂
Why Erin didn't wait till she drinks to tell about the water???
Honestly, while I love this character and the movie. This was a really fucked up bit on Erins part, the story that was told about the ear rings says it all. "I'll give these to her the next time she does or says something nice" and for 6+ months that didn't happens. No wonder the guy took off, I would've as well......instead of taking responsibility for her fuck up Erin just decides to self destruct herself yet again, always felt bad for the guy in this Scene.
This scene was great. However, it would have been a little bit more dramatic if Erin had let Ms. Sanchez actually drink some of the water before telling her it came from Hinkley.
Kyle: that would have been negligent 🙄
@@joline2730 Only if it really were from Hinckley...
Lots of (sick) people don't dream about money
Julia Roberts is a national treasure.
I think she has my number but perhaps has mislaid it. She must be awfully busy.
Damn. That man is good looking. Even with that preposterous facial hair, you can see it.
I didn't get the subtext the first time. I get it now?
Stay..
I didn't realize Aaron Echart was the boyfriend in this movie.
Julia proves her acting prowess beyond being extremely beautiful. She had the entire opposition under her footwear like a used ciggy butt. The dialogues with her husband is so intense. He just needed to be a little more patient, letting go off his ego respecting the Lady in his life. A life’s lesson to be learnt. Just plain awesome. Men have thrown their Egos around for too long a time. Even God’s dictates were altered to suit the male prowess, this is all when we still call our Planet “ MOTHER EARTH “. Please grow up guys, grow up all in the name Magnanimity. The world will be a Better place for YOU & FOR ME. Love from India.
Your man hating rant and attitude is oneof the reasons a lot of single men don't give a shat about dating single women anymore let alone an entitled single mom with expectations demands and a truckload of baggage....going to a be a lot of lonely winebox catladies in the future.
If you think men are just going to take it because women are strong now as compensation for previous generations of misogyny is delusional 🙄
Big mistake, Big!
Where did I hear that from 🤔
"Pretty woman", after the store clerks wouldn't serve her because they thought she had no money and then she went and spent "an obscene amount of money" at a competitor and the original clerks lost out on the commission.
That Sanchez was elected to congress later on.
