"Time to Kill" is perhaps a film made for those seeking drama, history, and a narrative of a certain part of the country's past. It's dangerous, yet very clever; no one wants to remember shameful acts, but these very memories are what critics end up both adoring and hating. It's a pity there aren't any black Jews, in an archaic sense. It's good but not as good as expected, and the coin is tossed in the air, but no one truly cares about the political situation.

-Mr. Grisham, may I have some time with you tonight? - Billy commented, shaking hands. John Grisham is perhaps a writer made to rant about many causes, as a lawyer, politician, and Democrat, with a key idea of how to organize his books, featuring attractive themes—the genius of thriller writing. Since his first book, he hasn't stopped publishing.

The problem is Billy doesn't have the rights to publish John Grisham's books, and approaching such talent is one of Billy's interests prompted by the movie's call.

-Of course, we can meet; there's a restaurant nearby where I usually have dinner. Does that work for you? - John suggested.

-That sounds perfect. - Billy replied.

-Good lad. - John commented, patting Billy. The movie keeps everyone busy; seeing a young Sandra Bullock makes any man on set tremble—hardworking, beautiful, and with an easy smile.

-It's a challenging way to see it, but Billy takes into account that he needs to get down to work. - he sighed to himself. However, for Billy, it's not an unfamiliar name, and for that reason, they know each other as creative friends, knowing the works that caused fame and for all people who create their works, it's there where they can share. It's not the first time a colleague has sent him a request to discuss creation because from there, creation, from the perspective of the book, knowing the characters and the background of the plots.

Scene 28.

It was just before noon when Ethel made her usual noisy entrance. She brewed coffee and opened the mail, as she had done for the last forty-one years. She was sixty-four but looked fifty, chubby without being obese, well-preserved but not particularly attractive. As she read Jake's mail, she loudly chewed on a greasy sausage and a biscuit she brought from home. Jake heard voices. Ethel was talking to another woman. He checked his schedule; he had no appointments until ten.

-Good morning, Mr. Brigance. - Ethel said.

-Good morning, Ethel. - Jake replied.

-There's a lady who wishes to see you. - Ethel mentioned.

-She doesn't have an appointment. - Billy responded.

-I know, sir. - Ethel replied.

-Tell her to come back tomorrow at ten-thirty. I'm busy now. - Billy/Jake replied.

-Yes, sir. But she says it's very urgent. - Ethel commented.

-Who is it? - Billy exclaimed.

It was always urgent when they showed up unannounced, like going to the funeral home or the laundry.

-A certain Mrs. Willard. - Ethel answered.

-What's her first name? - Billy replied, noting the camera positions, a slight blink, his serious and confident demeanor unchanged.

-Earnestine Willard. You don't know her, but her son is in jail. - Ethel said.

-Tell her I'm not interested. - Jake Brigance/Billy said with a hint of annoyance.

-She insists she needs a lawyer. Her son has to appear before the judge at one this afternoon. - Ethel replied.

-Tell her to talk to Drew Jack Tyndale, the duty attorney. He's good and free. - Jake/Billy said.

-Mr. Brigance. - Ethel replied after conveying the message.

-She insists on hiring you. Someone told her you're the best criminal lawyer in the county. - she added jokingly. The woman.

-Tell her it's true, but I'm not interested. - Billy replied with a distant expression.

Her son exceeded by far what Jake Brigance was willing to endure. The limit was everything.

-Cut. - Joel Schumacher said.

They continued with takes for the rest of the day, in the office; as night fell, they rested, but there were still some shots left, especially those of Jake with his family.

The newspaper, with the acquisition of Discovery Channel, is featured in all U.S. newspapers, and the news focuses on a major acquisition by Lux Animation, which, using the momentum, announced that a new animation channel would be launched under the name Discovery Kids, under the Lux Animation brand.

Banging against the glass table, Betty Cohen sighed with some measured calmness. The executives were demanding more and more results; they started by creating a cartoon laboratory, using advertisements to give space to short 20-second clips of different animations—some were acceptable, and others outstanding, but the fierce battle for animation was going from bad to worse.

-A channel just for kids. - Betty muttered. - How good do you think it will be, Paula?

-I have no idea, but Sesame Street's results are relevant; they have a particularly large audience. - Paula Sullen replied, formerly a newcomer in the industry and now part of Betty Cohen's team, involved in the development of Cartoon Network's program in many aspects, having been trained to see all the ways Betty made her successful.

-Our programs are good. - Betty responded, trying to grasp an idea crossing her mind. - But we don't have the same creative momentum; we have four great series, but they're all from Carson, and I hate to say they're perfect. We're testing new series; even the sector purchased from MGM generates some applause, but they're not the boom we need. Diversifying series is both good and bad—it supports other series to shine, but Luxtoons' series is here to stay; their programming now needs more support from our channels. They have two... -

-Because of the repetition. - Paula replied.

-Yes, exactly. Their programs last half an hour, with a break every seven minutes, so in half an hour, they have two breaks. This means an episode of some of their series is fifteen minutes long per episode. They need 28 programs to have 24 hours of programming. - Betty commented.

-So... -

-So they want to create another channel, capturing programming for kids, youth, and adults. However, it's challenging to do with so few series under their belt; right now, they're just waiting and bundling numerous series into one. - Betty remarked.

Hitting the nail on the head, but very risky, unless you intend to earn little for those channels, without knowing the details, information, and data, you can't understand the reason behind such a move. The acquisition of a documentary once again reshapes the work table; TV producers are now doing a poor job of programming, and although they compensate with many channels, they lack significant organization in terms of how many programs they produce in a year. They are proposed, piloted, and made.

The Golden State Warriors basketball team was founded in Philadelphia but moved to the San Francisco Bay Area in 1960, with their glory days in the 1970s, or well, their last streak, which has been overshadowed by other teams.

In 1995, the IBA league was newly founded as a second-tier basketball league. However, there's also the CBA, a league created to develop basketball talent for the NBA, and finally, the college basketball league.

The plan begins with the purchase of the Golden State Warriors, followed by either the Oakland Athletics or the San Francisco Giants baseball teams. As for American football, the San Francisco 49ers are in succession troubles up until now. For all three teams, the sums vary, but the agreed-upon result is that for the Golden State Warriors and San Francisco Giants, the acquisition value totals 200 million.

Steve Parks could only hold his head upon reading all that was necessary; he barely looked at soccer, and his father was English.

-What a headache. - he murmured.
