For those that have read some/most/all of his books, which one was your favorite movie? I would assume it is "The Firm"?
Also, which book do you think would make a good movie that never was? IMO...."The Partner".

To this day, I still have not watched A Time to Kill, because I know it won't compare to the book, my favorite.

It was actually on TV last night. Pretty good. Matt Damon and Danny Devito.

One of my favorite Grisham books is "The King of Torts." Don't know how it would relate to the silver screen but I thought the book was great. You do not ever really hear much about this one.

I was actually thinking the same thing. I think it would translate well to a movie.

Probably in the minority here, but I don't like any of his movies.
I think King of Torts is probably my favorite of his books, but there's something about The Testament that I can read it over and over again, I can't do that with many stories/books.

Runaway Jury was probably my favorite movie adaptation.

I also enjoyed The Client.

I didn't care for that book and I LOVE Grisham.
Best movie adaptation of one of his books is hands down Pelican Brief. Not that the others were bad, especially The Client, but Pelican Brief was a great movie even forgetting that it was a Grisham book.
I would LOVE to see either Street Lawyer or Runaway Jury made into a movie.

The Broker would make a solid movie

Runaway Jury is a movie.

I agree that the book wasn't so great. But the story would make a good movie....especially being a true stroy.

The Putz was my favorite. Its loosely based on the young career of a lawyer who goes by "sfP"
