Michael Clayton (Clooney; Ocean’s Thirteen, Good Night, and Good Luck, Syriana) is an in-house ‘fixer’ at one of the largest corporate law firms in New York. At the behest of the firm’s co-founder Marty Bach (Pollack; Eyes Wide Shut, Cold Mountain, Tootsie), Clayton takes care of Kenner, Bach & Ledeen’s dirtiest work. Clayton cleans up clients’ messes, handling anything from hit-and-runs and damaging stories in the press to shoplifting wives and crooked politicians. Though burned out and discontented in his job, Clayton is inextricably tied to Kenner, Bach & Ledeen; divorce, a crippling gambling habit and a failed business venture have left him with mounting debt.
Michael Clayton on DVD includes explosive special features including deleted scenes and an audio commentary by director Tony Gilroy and editor John Gilroy. Don’t miss out on your chance to see this exhilarating rollercoaster ride on DVD this February.
