Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | A 1998 film starring Cuba Gooding Jr., Tom Berenger, Eric Stoltz, Marianne Jean-Baptiste and Mark Pellegrino, A Murder of Crows opens as the main character, Lawson Russell (Gooding), is taken to jail, acting as Narrator to explain How We Got Here. It began on Mardi Gras in New Orleans, when Lawson is wrestling with a new-found sense of conscience. Unbeknownst to him at the time, a man dressed as Satan picked the lock and slipped into his office, intending to kill him. Lawson cannot reconcile his duty as a defense attorney with the knowledge that his client, Thurman Parks III (Stoltz), the wealthy son of a former mayor of New Orleans, is guilty of murder after he gloats about having told his victim he would get off. The man has a gun on Lawson as he calls the judge and asks to be withdrawn from the case, which upsets His Honor. Seeing him doing this, the intrudes exits and leaves Lawson alive. The next morning, the judge rejects Lawson's request to be withdrawn, and Lawson turns on his own client, attacking him verbally, which causes the case to be declared a mistrial. |
