Private justice: plot, cast and streaming of the film

This evening, Wednesday 8 February 2023, at 21.20 on Italia 1, Giustizia Privata (Law Abiding Citizen) is broadcast, a 2009 film directed by F. Gary Gray and starring Gerard Butler and Jamie Foxx. But let’s see all the information together in detail.

Plot

Clyde Shelton is an engineer who works for the American government, but has decided to quit to be with his family. His life is turned upside down when two criminals break into his house, knocking him out with a baseball bat and, after immobilizing him, one of the two rapes and kills his wife Clara and daughter Daisy while the other watches helplessly. The criminals are captured thanks to the identification of Shelton, who provides prosecutor Nick Rice with all possible elements, but during the process Rice prefers to settle in order to win the case, accepting the death penalty for Ames (the man who had assisted impotent ) but leaving Clarence Darby, the material killer, free after only three years in prison. Outside the courthouse, Darby shakes Rice’s hand to mock him, while Shelton notices the scene from a distance and, misunderstanding, questions the integrity of the prosecutor, thinking that he has implemented a conspiracy with Darby and the judge. Rice, unaware of this, returns home to his pregnant wife.

Ten years later the day of Ames’ execution arrives and Rice prefers to attend the capital punishment rather than his daughter’s cello recital. Unexpectedly the lethal injection takes place with a corrosive compound and the executed dies atrociously. The police set out in search of Darby, as they find on a bottle a phrase often said by the man, the murderous accomplice of ten years earlier. Darby is immobilized by Shelton disguised as a policeman with tetradotoxin hidden in the gun, a poison that only paralyzes his body while leaving his brain functions intact; he then takes him to one of his properties, where he tortures him by giving him a saline solution and adrenaline in his vein, making sure he doesn’t pass out so that he feels all the fear and pain possible.
