An Admired American Novelist's Books That Were Turned Into Films
John Grisham has been one of America's most beloved novelists since 1989. His books have sold over 250 million copies globally. The greater part of his books, in actual fact 17 in all, are legal fiction on the other hand he has written 4 non-legal fiction works and one non-fiction book. As of this writing there have been ten movies made from his work with one in the works.
The first movie from 1 of his books was "The Firm" in 1993. Tom Cruise plays a Harvard law school graduate who begins working for a Memphis law firm with connections to the underworld. Also starring Jeanne Tripplehorn and Gene Hackman. Again in 1993, the 2nd motion picture from a Grisham novel came out. "The Pelican Brief" starring Julia Roberts and Denzel Washington.
In 1994, "The Client" was released. In this movie a little boy by accident witnesses a suicide and he is as a result chased by the mafia for what they think the dying man may have confided in him. "The Client" starred Susan Sarandon, Tommy Lee Jones and the late Brad Renfro.
The very first tale authored by Grisham was made into a film in 1996. "A Time to Kill" introduced the planet to an up and coming new actor, as it was one of Matthew McConaughey's first leading roles. Also starring Sandra Bullock, Samuel L. Jackson and Kevin Spacey. "The Chamber" starring Chris O'Donnell, Gene Hackman and Faye Dunaway was also released in 1996.
Matt Damon took the lead role in "The Rainmaker" in 1997. He played a brand new attorney who takes on a influential insurance company on behalf of a boy denied medical treatment. In 1998, "The Gingerbread Man" starring Kenneth Branagh and Robert Downey, Jr. came out. This is the only Grisham picture that you will not be able to find as a book because it came from an unpublished manuscript.
2 of the non-legal fiction stories by Grisham have also been made into movies. "A Painted House" came out in 2003 and in 2004, the holiday favorite, "Christmas with the Kranks", starring Tim Allen and Jamie Lee Curtis, based upon the book "Skipping Christmas".
"The Runaway Jury" came out in 2003. This movie starred Gene Hackman, Dustin Hoffman, John Cusack and Rachel Weisz. Grisham's twenty-first book, "The Associate", just released as a book in January 2009, will be released as a show in 2012.
Grisham has beyond doubt been one of the most famous and inexhaustible authors in the recent past. With 22 writings out and another intended for November 2009, 10 movies and an additional intended for 2012, he has never failed to entertain us. If you happened to neglect any of these impressive movies you can now download them at once to your computer to view right away on your computer, Television or even your iPhone. - 23815
