Course Description
There is no better teacher than Hollywood. In this class, lawyers will learn the law in a unique way – through the lens of Hollywood. We will start with the movie Molly’s Game which tells the story of a former mogul skier who runs an illegal gambling operation. During this session, we will learn the federal law on gaming and how it is currently being enforced. In Amistad we learn about the Supreme Court case U.S. v. Schooner, and the importance of this decision to current civil rights litigation. On the Basis of Sex is the story of how Ruth Bader Ginsburg sought to eradicate discrimination on the basis of sex. This story culminates with the decision of the U.S. Supreme Court in Loving v. Virginia, and opinion written by RBG herself. In Truth, we learn about how the law deals with potentially defamatory journalism practices. In Mississippi Burning, we learn how the civil rights laws were used to pursue justice when three civil rights workers were murdered in Mississippi and local officials wanted to look the other way. Finally, in the Judgement at Nuremberg we learn how the law can be used to seek justice when crimes against humanity occur.
