question about michael clayton?

Question by anonymous: question about michael clayton?
i just watched the movie very late last night, so i was tired. while i understood the basics and though it was a good movie, i feel like i missed some stuff. but my big thing was that the red books barely came into play at all..and did the guy with the car running over the pedestrian come into play at all, and i didnt really catch why he owed 80gs because of his brother (or anything involving the bro at all)

but heres what i do remember. clayton-somewhat dissatisfied with his life-has to “fix” his friends clothing mistake. apparently the friend realized he was on the wrong side of the case and had to make the other teams case. clayton at first knew he wasnt on the right side but didnt know the scope..eventually he comes around when he realizes his friend was killed and he almost gets killed, up to him catching that ***** on tape

so what key things am i missing, because i was hoping for a stronger ending,…and i really feel the red books should have been involved in the ending more…theres gotta be more to the movie than that
