20:08 (Debt)

I was missing my old screenshot series this morning so here's one for nostalgia's sake. (Can you have nostalgia for something that was going on mere months ago?)

Screenshot from the 20th minute and 8th second of a movie

Are you telling me you don't have the $75,000?
Michael Clayton is drowning in debt. And one of my favorite things about this movie which stares at him, unblinking, is the way you feel that same crushing burden on all the main characters in the movie, not just Michael. Everyone is drowning, gasping for oxygen at the convergence of career, money and morality.
