Erin Brockovich
Erin Brockovich is an unemployed single mother
desperate to find a job but is having no luck--even extending to a
failed lawsuit against a doctor from a car accident she was in. With no
alternative, she browbeats her lawyer to give her a job in compensation.
While no one takes her seriously with her trashy clothes and earthy
manners, that changes when she begins to investigate a suspicious real
estate case involving the Pacific Gas & Electric Co. She discovers
that the company is quietly buying land contaminated by a deadly toxic
waste that the company is illegally dumping, poisoning the residents in
the area. As she digs deeper, Erin finds herself leading point in a case
that involves her law firm in one of the biggest class action lawsuits
in American history.
