Captivating Clips from Classic Courtroom Movies, Part 2

Real trials and courtroom movies are made for each other. Lawyers are storytellers, courtrooms are theaters and trials can provide drama, surprise, suspense, laughs, and sometimes truth. Anthropologists use cultural residue like pottery and cave drawings to tell stories about how past societies functioned and what people believed. In this course, we are entertained with movie clips as we learn about the law, lawyers, as well as film and legal history. All the clips shown in Part 2 will be different from the clips that were shown in Part 1. This course uses the Hybrid format which allows students to participate remotely and/or in the classroom. This course will be recorded. Students will have access to videos for the duration of the course.
