What is your favorite Legal/Courtroom Drama?

What are your favorite courtroom dramas?

Mine would have to be, in order:

1. Inherit the Wind (1960).
2. To Kill A Mockingbird
3. A Time to Kill
4. Murder in the First
5. The Client

What say you guys?

12 Angry Men (1957). Very well written play and an excellent movie adaptation. Excellent acting, etc.

I would have listed The People Vs. Larry Flynt, but the film is so diverse, that it can't truly be called a courtroom drama. Fantastic film, though.

Heh. And Justice for All was a good film. I loved the finale. I actually stood up and cheered.

3. A Time to Kill

I would definitely say A Time to Kill. I watch this at least once a year, and I always thoroughly enjoy it.

I also like A Few Good Men, The Accused, and Presumed Innocent (even though I liked the novel more)

My cousin Vinny

Does Devils Advocate count?

No, I don't think so...

There isn't a great deal of courtroom stuff is there? That's certainly not the focus of the film...

No, no there isn't. You're right too but all the courtroom scenes are awesome 😂

My Cousin Vinny is more of a comedy than a drama. Still, it's a damn funny movie.

Runaway Jury wasnt bad.

I enjoyed Runaway Jury a lot, actually. Wasn't wild on the ending. It was a bit too... preach-y at the end...

Yeah, it wasn't a bad movie.. which reminds me I need to re watch it

I would put Primal Fear up there.

I've actually never seen Primal Fear. Is it recommended?
