A Time to Kill Trivia Questions

1. Carl Lee Hailey accidentally shot me and this resulted in my leg being amputated. Who played me?

From Quiz
Who Played Me in "A Time to Kill"?

Answer: Chris Cooper

Cooper, born on July 9th, 1951 in Kansas City, Missouri, was cast as Dwayne Looney. Dwayne was the Deputy Sheriff in the county where the film took place and was a victim in a major scene in the movie. Carl Lee Hailey, in a moment of rage, took a gun and shot dead the two men accused of raping his daughter, Tonya. During the shootout, he accidentally shot Deputy Sheriff Looney and this caused his leg to be amputated. In a later scene, Deputy Looney testified at Carl Lee's trial for murdering the two men and stated how he held no ill will towards Carl Lee for what happened. He also stated how he had a daughter and likely would have done the same thing had he been in Carl Lee's shoes. Cooper starred in the movies "The Bourne Identity", "American Beauty" and "October Sky". In 2003, he won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for the movie "Adaptation". Other Oscar nominees for Best Supporting Actor that year were Christopher Walken for "Catch Me If You Can", John C.

From Quiz Who Played Me in "A Time to Kill"?

Answer: Tonea Stewart

Stewart, born in 1947 in Greenwood, Mississippi, was cast as Gwen Hailey. Gwen was first seen right after Tonya had been raped when her sons informed her about what happened to Tonya. She tended to Tonya and took care of her wounds while expressing resentment over what happened to her. Gwen stood by her husband when he was charged with murder and this was very apparent when she was seen in court during his trial. During Jake Brigance's closing arguments and Carl Lee's testimony, Gwen was seen shedding plenty of tears at the emotional gravitas from both men's words. At the end of the movie, Gwen and Carl Lee held a barbecue to celebrate his acquittal and the Brigances arrived. Carla introduced her daughter to Gwen and gave her a peach cobbler while Gwen took Jake and Carla's daughter over to meet her children. Stewart guest starred on the TV series "Touched By an Angel", "ER" and "Walker, Texas Ranger".
