Best Movies of All-Time Every Law Student Should Watch
Out of several niches such as thrill, drama, romance, and sci-fi, movies related to the law have always remained mine (and I am sure for many others) all-time-favorite niche. For many screenwriters, lawyers make the least interesting movie setting, however, there are few movies that have made this task exciting and worth filming. Here is the list of top law school movies of all times that are worth-watching for every law student. You may agree to some of the movies from the list, and can also suggest more.
The Paper Chase (1973)
This movie is really a serious tap on law school life. It is intense and captured perfectly the dynamics between the student and law professor. Academy award-winning actor John Houseman’s performance as Professor Kingsfield alone makes the movie worth watching. He excellently plays the role of an intimidating professor. The movie accurately shows what studying for finals in a law school actually is like.
Legally Blonde (2001)
Unlike The Paper Chase, this movie is a really good comedy movie which shows a girl joining Harvard Law School to pursue her ex-boyfriend. She decides to leave behind a comfortable, sorority lifestyle in California and takes admission in Harvard. She has to readjust her priorities. Although the movie is a fantastic comedy, however, it truly depicts the reality and the admission process, especially, when Elle Woods prepares for LSAT!
The Verdict (1982)
It would not be untrue if I call this movie among ‘the greats’ about the washed-up lawyers. This fantastic movie offers justice in an amazing way- Frank rises from the obscurity of alcohol and moral uncertainty and corrects injustice. The movie is an excellent depiction of a courtroom proceeding. The movie also makes it fun for a law student, and truly feeds the inner idealist.
A Few Good Men (1992)
A movie that gives a perfect account of explosive trial confession. This movie probably has inspired hundreds of subsequent movies and lawyers shows. The movie truly reflects the phrase “when you can’t handle the truth.”
My Cousin Vinny (1992)
Those who still want to be lawyers must watch this movie. Despite very small chances of success, Vinny, who at 6th try, finally passes his bar. The movie gives a good lesson of persistence! The courtroom procedure is quite near to reality and accurate. There is incredible chemistry between Joe Pesci and Marisa Tomei. Like the Legally Blonde, this is a hilarious yet impactful movie for future lawyers.
So, whether you are intending to be a corporate lawyer or criminal lawyer, these movies are a must-watch. You can add to the list if you are up to share more movie names in the lawyer niche.
