Sidney Lumet…darn spell check!
Marc Peterson
2025-03-11 21:43:58 +0000 UTC1982 The Verdict with Paul Newman as his best as an aging, down on his luck attorney. Nominated for 5 Academy awards and #4 on AFI’s top courtroom dramas. Brilliant David Mamet screenplay and directed by Sidney Lundy. Costars Jack Warden and Charlotte Rampling. Cassie will love this.
Marc Peterson
2025-03-11 21:43:15 +0000 UTCYeah you guessed like 4 votes a couple weeks ago 😃
Björn Karlsson
2025-03-11 19:19:15 +0000 UTCWoohoo, not last! And 10x the votes I thought Indictment: The McMartin Trial (1995) would get. The momentum is building.
Mike Lemon
2025-03-09 23:31:40 +0000 UTC...and a great song!!
Bill W
2025-03-06 16:52:56 +0000 UTCNot new. 1979. Just a really good Al Pacino courtroom movie which is missing from the lineup.
bgb1975 (Brian)
2025-03-06 11:56:17 +0000 UTCThat's a newer movie?
Chris Thom
2025-03-06 05:44:13 +0000 UTCI did a paper on that case in college.
Chris Thom
2025-03-06 05:22:50 +0000 UTCOh I love that movie. Some of the best performances I've ever seen.
Chris Thom
2025-03-06 05:21:51 +0000 UTCShame The Hurricane is doing so poorly. such an important case.
djKENTO
2025-03-06 01:46:04 +0000 UTCExcellent movie. Yes, has Woody Harrelson.
Clay F
2025-03-05 23:18:10 +0000 UTCI voted for Inhert the Wind but can not believe how poorly The Hurricane is doing. That is a really good movie.
Nicholas Coy
2025-03-05 23:13:57 +0000 UTCI think Woody's performance makes an unlikeable person likeable
Jacob Wagner
2025-03-05 22:20:31 +0000 UTCGreat recommendation. Such an important case, but I wonder if Cassie could get past the person?
Mike Lemon

2025-03-05 21:14:12 +0000 UTCI'll have to check it out!
Ben Schwartz
2025-03-05 20:59:10 +0000 UTCbknsty- all Shandor's reactions are really short. His Dances with Wolves is only 35 minutes.
Bill W
2025-03-05 19:02:36 +0000 UTCFound it. Thanks. Only issue with it is it’s too short. I’m starting to get to a point where I want reactions to be about 45 minutes.
bknsty14
2025-03-05 18:15:35 +0000 UTCIndeed , thanks for reminding me 😊😊😊
William Burnham
2025-03-05 14:37:46 +0000 UTCIt was actually the top vote getter on her first ever Courtroom poll
Cole Jennett
2025-03-05 14:36:10 +0000 UTCI totally agree!
Cole Jennett
2025-03-05 14:34:58 +0000 UTCHonorable Judge Cassie, members of the jury, if it please the court, I'd like to introduce "And Justice For All" to the proceedings....
bgb1975 (Brian)
2025-03-05 12:22:22 +0000 UTCReality is The Judge won't win, but of all these movies, this one, from what I've seen of your choices, could end up being your favorite. I think it could be. It's a family coming of age movie.
Mark James
2025-03-05 12:07:38 +0000 UTCPresumed Innocent (1990) is in Courtroom Poll A. See immediately below. Currently, not doing very well.
Clay F
2025-03-05 11:36:52 +0000 UTCEasy/quick (less than 30 seconds) to check whether she has seen a movie by searching at www.popcornrequests.com
Clay F
2025-03-05 11:34:15 +0000 UTCI Love that unique POV in your explaination but you also need to pass that blunt and quit hogging it
Sean Kay
2025-03-05 10:28:19 +0000 UTCShe has, Ben. One of her best reactions. Just her response to that great line is worth the watch.
Clarence Newman
2025-03-05 10:26:10 +0000 UTCAnd note sorkin wwrote the story for the play, not the play itself and then was adapted from...reiner had many motivations to keep his name large on this, not only legal requirements, but also the name "Sorkin" attached carries weight always, no matter how much bugger suger he admitted to using at the time....he will be forever a force
Sean Kay
2025-03-05 10:22:59 +0000 UTCAnd yes I know he passed the story on but you gotta give reiner credit...(Sorkin is top 3 writer to look up to and def on my rushmore)
Sean Kay
2025-03-05 10:15:33 +0000 UTCYou are allowed to check her collection list...but yes, her reaction to that film is very fun to watch...and it is not directed by Sorkin my friend. Rob Riener owns that one....
Sean Kay
2025-03-05 10:09:46 +0000 UTCCome on lurkers, Indictment: The McMartin Trial (1995) is only 240 votes from winning this poll. With your vote this great movie could move on and possibly be seen by the masses. "If not for me, do it for your country." (Name that quote. Hint- Carlos)
Mike Lemon
2025-03-05 10:04:43 +0000 UTC"Amistad" should've been in one of these polls.
Mark Vaderr
2025-03-05 06:19:39 +0000 UTCMaybe if we tell her that after production Chris Evans and Jenny Slate dated for a while....? You know how she loves a real life couple. It's a great flick that hits all the feels.
Javier Hernandez
2025-03-05 03:35:56 +0000 UTCI'm just going to assume that you've already seen 'A Few Good Men' -- because if you haven't, that needs to be on this poll. Fantastic movie, one of the best court dramas of all time. Starring Tom Cruise, Jack Nicholson ("You can't HANDLE the truth!!!"), Demi Moore, Kevin Bacon, Kevin Pollack, Kiefer Sutherland... directed by Aaron Sorkin. But you've probably seen it, I'm just too lazy to check the list.
Ben Schwartz
2025-03-05 03:15:19 +0000 UTCBold film for 1960.
Chris Thom
2025-03-05 01:40:12 +0000 UTCInherit the Wind was taken almost entirely from the actual trial transcript of the Scopes Monkey Trial. The State of Tennessee v. John Thomas Scopes 1925. The lawyers were William Jennings Bryan and Clarence Darrow. Two very famous lawyers of the time with two of the greatest actors portraying them. Spencer Tracy as Henry Drummond (Clarence Darrow) and Fredrick March as Matthew Harrison Brady (William Jennings Bryan). Scopes was convicted and fined 100 dollars, but it was overturned on appeal on a technicality. But the banter between Darrow and Bryan is fantastic. It's one of the greatest movies ever made.
Darreld Studie
2025-03-05 01:23:32 +0000 UTCShandor at the Cinema has reacted to it and it's very good
Milton William Burray
2025-03-05 01:07:19 +0000 UTCAt least there's 1 reaction to In the Name of the Father (on the other poll) by Dawn Marie.
Bill W
2025-03-05 01:06:37 +0000 UTC👍👍👍
Bill W
2025-03-05 00:43:51 +0000 UTCI’ve looked and never found a reaction. It’s just a great movie.

2025-03-05 00:43:31 +0000 UTCI hate to use the "U" word, but it is very much so! 😀
Bill W
2025-03-05 00:42:51 +0000 UTCPlease let it be Sleepers! Fantastic film. Great ensemble cast and I don't think anyone has ever reacted to it.
Bill W
2025-03-05 00:41:14 +0000 UTCHard to choose between rainmaker and rules of engagement.
Jim K
2025-03-05 00:36:39 +0000 UTCInherit the Wind is a Fantastic movie.
Ian Bailey
2025-03-05 00:28:21 +0000 UTCYou're right. Right there on MAX.
Rick Rodriguez
2025-03-05 00:21:51 +0000 UTCI liked the Lincoln Lawyer but, for me anyways, it’s not in the same class as Sleepers or The Hurricane. Absolutely fine with The Rainmaker leading though.
Cole Jennett
2025-03-05 00:18:46 +0000 UTCI guess I could watch the scene with Farrah Fawcett in the bar 100 times. In fact I have. In fact I have been known to pause it.
Clarence Newman
2025-03-04 23:03:42 +0000 UTCI voted it too. It has some very dark themes. But best movie on the list. The ending scene is touching, and the line about "one song". But often with these polls, the most famous names will win (often also emphasis on more recent films), not the highest quality movie. I already knew which would be the 2 leading movies, without checking results. IMO The Rainmaker isn't that exciting Grisham filmatisation, even if it was a breakout role for Matt Damon, that's pretty much all it has to offer. "The Firm" was better (also based on a Grisham book)
Shreddy
2025-03-04 22:57:43 +0000 UTCI KNOWWW RIGHT! THANK-YOU! I've been thinking about putting it in as my monthly but I know it is selfish to request Cassie AND Carly to watch it together
Sean Kay
2025-03-04 22:51:07 +0000 UTCSleepers is something that might be a hard watch for Cassie, but gets my vote because it is a great cast and the best movie on the list.
Matthew Folz
2025-03-04 22:36:45 +0000 UTCI am absolutely flabbergasted that Presumed Innocent wasn't included! Perhaps Clay can provide me with an explanation. :-P
Happy Hanukkah
2025-03-04 22:31:58 +0000 UTCThe power of solidarity compels me!
Happy Hanukkah
2025-03-04 22:30:43 +0000 UTCLot of good ones on here...voting for The Rainmaker because I think you'll like it the most (and I think it's pretty good, too).
Steve Mercier
2025-03-04 22:19:51 +0000 UTCWhat are you talking about? I'll have to watch it hundreds of times just to get the YouTube views up.
Mike Lemon
2025-03-04 22:03:51 +0000 UTCThere's at least four full uploads on YouTube and it is probably on Max and Amazon.
Mike Lemon
2025-03-04 21:59:52 +0000 UTCSleepers!!! For people who haven’t seen it imagine if Shawshank Redemption, Stand By me, A Few Good Men, The Departed and Good Will Hunting were all blended together into The Count of Monte Cristo. And Robert DeNiro plays basketball.
Jacob King
2025-03-04 21:47:00 +0000 UTCKeep your powder dry, Mike. If McMartin wins the poll, you'll have to watch it again again. I love Cannonball Run, but I couldn't watch it twice in two weeks.
Clarence Newman
2025-03-04 21:45:57 +0000 UTCI voted The Rainmaker, such a wonderful cast and acted movie, I think Cassie would LOVE that movie.
JoshArg
2025-03-04 21:42:33 +0000 UTCOnly if they go full English, with the wigs and everything.
Mike Lemon
2025-03-04 21:39:26 +0000 UTCI just watched it again a few days ago. So good.
Mike Lemon
2025-03-04 21:38:11 +0000 UTCIt's only 190 behind at the moment. All I need is a Chinese hacker or two to push it over the top. Seriously though, it is doing much better than I thought it would.
Mike Lemon
2025-03-04 21:33:20 +0000 UTCI've never seen so I am curious. Heard about it for years.
Rick Rodriguez
2025-03-04 21:17:58 +0000 UTC...Indictment. The real gem in the poll.
Mike Lemon
2025-03-04 21:13:14 +0000 UTCI completely second Gifted! It's so underrated and such a great movie! And I know Cassie would love it.
Annie519
2025-03-04 21:06:51 +0000 UTCMurder in the First is very loosely based on a true story. Henri Young was a real guy but that is about the extent of the true story. That said, I think it is a good movie and is Kevin Bacon's best performance.
Mike Lemon
2025-03-04 21:03:45 +0000 UTCsleepers is harrowing but brilliant
diego kontarovsky
2025-03-04 20:53:16 +0000 UTCI voted for the McMartin trial as well
🚩
2025-03-04 20:42:31 +0000 UTCThe Rainmaker is so good IMO, and The Lincoln Lawyer is a lot of fun.
Alex Laime
2025-03-04 20:39:59 +0000 UTCCassie would cry with The Hurricane, and she would love some of the Canadian characters. Hope she reacts to it one day.
Alex Villarreal
2025-03-04 20:11:49 +0000 UTCYeah that was a reply for Cassie. So much talk about what is appropriate for her to watch it just seemed easier to get some input from her.
Chris Thom
2025-03-04 19:54:59 +0000 UTCIs this for me or for Cassie? I’ve seen JFK a lot of times and watched tons of documentaries over the years. I 100% believe that there was a conspiracy surrounding his assassination. What happened? I don’t know. But that head shot was a frontal entry wound. The autopsy was botched. His brain went missing. And witnesses did in fact die in mysterious ways.
bknsty14
2025-03-04 19:47:16 +0000 UTCI know. I was making a joke about the number of times Clay has responded in the comments about Presumed Innocent being in the other poll. It’s like every fifth comment. Thanks for responding though. (Subliminal message…watch Sleepers)
bknsty14
2025-03-04 19:43:20 +0000 UTCCassie, there's a lot of debate about JFK at the moment. Do you have any interest in the assassination? Even if it presents some theories that turned out to not be true, or probably not true?
Chris Thom
2025-03-04 19:40:43 +0000 UTCIts in Courtroom Poll A! There are two polls, and the top 2 picks from each will go to a final poll!
Cassie
2025-03-04 19:20:05 +0000 UTCInherit the Wind (1960) is such a great movie and should be seen
JarHead0351
2025-03-04 19:05:24 +0000 UTCCassie should watch “Class Action” (1991), a Gene Hackman and Courtroom movie all rolled into one. Its storyline is based on the Ford Pinto legal case, the lawsuit of Grimshaw V Ford Motor Company. Cassie likes movies based on true stories.
Mac61
2025-03-04 18:44:16 +0000 UTCHey, Clay F., I was wondering why Presumed Innocent isn’t in this poll… Any insight?
bknsty14
2025-03-04 18:42:51 +0000 UTCAlso, it’s in her poll
bknsty14
2025-03-04 18:41:24 +0000 UTCMurder in the First is one of the most underrated movies. Nobody ever remembers that movie.
bknsty14
2025-03-04 18:40:22 +0000 UTCThat’s a great movie. I voted for Sleepers, but Rules of Engagement would’ve been my second choice.
bknsty14
2025-03-04 18:38:04 +0000 UTCSaw it; but I don’t think it is in the cards, because “Presumed Innocent” (1990) isn’t on Apple, Hulu, or Netflix.
Uncle Phoenix
2025-03-04 17:59:38 +0000 UTCAs you may have noticed, Presumed Innocent (1990) is in Courtroom Poll A. See immediately below. Currently in next to last place.
Clay F
2025-03-04 17:58:26 +0000 UTCPrefer Lincoln lawyer the series. Can’t get to grips with McConaughey in serious roles
LDC7080
2025-03-04 17:43:03 +0000 UTCA great courtroom drama is "Presumed Innocent" starring Harrison Ford as a Prosecutor accused of murdering a fellow prosecutor that he had a affair with. Very good with great cast and twists.
Tom Castro
2025-03-04 17:40:21 +0000 UTCInherit the wind is amazing.
Thomas Williamson
2025-03-04 17:35:43 +0000 UTCShe did include it. Presumed Innocent (1990) is in Courtroom Poll A. See immediately below. Currently in next to last place.
Clay F
2025-03-04 17:30:19 +0000 UTCInherit the Wind my moms favorite movie 🍿
SpankTheMonk
2025-03-04 17:27:42 +0000 UTCRules of engagement did not have the viewing of some of the others listed here, but was powerfully some of best issues faced by military personnel across the board. Powerful acting by both Samuel Jackson and Tommy Lee Jones. A must watch, given the times we were about to face as a nation just a few years later. Not a pro war, but a cost of war. As it always is. Something we are all supposed to remember!
Tim Foppiano
2025-03-04 17:11:58 +0000 UTCIt's the same ball park but I'm sure falls on the right side of the line
Milton William Burray
2025-03-04 17:00:02 +0000 UTCIt is not one that crosses the "true story" part of this particular list I generaed, but it is actually still on the list, like "Gifted" and "Roman j Israel Esquire" but I didn't name them all... You are absolutely right "The Verdict" "Michael Clayton" "Rainmaker" are a few that also do make the cut I was posting to reach higher than "Rainmaker"
Sean Kay
2025-03-04 16:51:20 +0000 UTCTop 2 from both A & B polls will be decided in 24 hours, maybe already are.
Joe
2025-03-04 16:43:04 +0000 UTCI would add Michael Clayton, a fictitious version of Dark Waters.
Javier Hernandez
2025-03-04 16:38:01 +0000 UTCOK, If you are a swede, check this out. "Indictment: The McMartin trial" is known as "Åtalad' in Sweden.
Björn Karlsson
2025-03-04 16:28:19 +0000 UTCThat being said, I would have thought that Cassie would have included Harrison Ford’s courtroom drama, “Presumed Innocent” (1990).
Uncle Phoenix
2025-03-04 16:27:33 +0000 UTCI would love to see "The Rainmaker", but man "The Lincoln Lawyer" is really good, too...🤩
silverarrow06
2025-03-04 16:25:01 +0000 UTCI love that Cassie will sometimes watch the runner ups.
Uncle Phoenix
2025-03-04 16:24:50 +0000 UTCSo I have written a program and without getting to nerdy, I would like to say respectfully, tracking your love type for movies and why, and for movies you have watched too, I believe you have left out a couple that track higher on your interests, and ones you should consider; ones that cross the legal type, true story, and love angle too...for instance in the legal, true story, and emotional category crossover: "Chicago 7" "Brian Banks" "On the Basis of Sex" "Worth" "The Report" "Charlie Wilson's War" "The Post" "Ghosts of Mississippi" "Gifted" "Roman j. Israel Esquire" "Dark Waters" "Kill the Messenger" "JFK" "Marshall" "The Conspirator" "Molly's Game" "Bridge of Spies" To name a few... All these will hit you hard- nicely/beautifully- while having what and who you like in a film... Carly too "Rainmaker" is on the list too but I left it and others out... If you watch "Rainmaker" I suggest you watch it with Carly too... Sry for long message
Sean Kay
2025-03-04 16:19:09 +0000 UTCThanks for the info
Rob Parry
2025-03-04 16:18:10 +0000 UTCInherit the Wind & The Hurricane are great historical courtroom dramas that are everything that JFK is not.

Rob Parry
2025-03-04 16:14:09 +0000 UTCSleepers is a very good watch! Very disturbing, Hits home as a parent! Very well acted by all. The story draws you in of a simpler time When life was care free and our youth Seemed endless! Big thumbs up 👍!🍿
Jason Henderson
2025-03-04 16:13:02 +0000 UTCIts a great movie, but Cassie has mentioned about certain subject matter that she refuses to watch... this might fall into that category.
Adam Doyle
2025-03-04 16:12:00 +0000 UTCReally want to see Sleepers win this. I’ve been requesting this for years and putting it in as my poll pick the last couple months.
bknsty14
2025-03-04 16:05:59 +0000 UTCHmmmm.
Richard Maurer
2025-03-04 16:02:49 +0000 UTCNot exactly versions of each other. Matt Damon in his movie is trying to "make it rain" in a different sense than Burt Lancaster was in his classic movie.
MikeLL
2025-03-04 15:59:31 +0000 UTC@Chris- It is the true story of the longest trial in U.S. history. McMartin also really kicked off the "satanic panic" of the 1980s.
Mike Lemon
2025-03-04 15:51:46 +0000 UTCOnly if it was a regular laugh. A George McFly chuckle is entertaining in itself and therefore acceptable.
Clarence Newman

Milton William Burray
2025-03-04 15:44:04 +0000 UTCOnce again, some real gems here. Went with Rainmaker, Sleepers, Inherit the Wind, and The Hurricane.
Rick Rodriguez
2025-03-04 15:42:27 +0000 UTCShe's reacted to Anatomy of a Murder, William. HEAVY agreement on The Verdict.

Above Average Dave
2025-03-04 15:40:34 +0000 UTCI thought Rules of Engagement was decent but it was decades ago I saw it.
Rick Rodriguez
2025-03-04 15:40:00 +0000 UTCI was gonna vote for The Rainmaker until I saw that it was the 1997 version. The 1956 version with Burt Lancaster would have gotten my vote.
Roger Banks

Cole Jennett
2025-03-04 15:22:35 +0000 UTCI voted for these 6: Sleepers (1996) Indictment: The Mcmartin TriaL (1995) [for Mike] The Rainmaker (1997) The Hurricane (1999) The Lincoln Lawyer (2011) Inherit the Wind (1960) Hoping that Rules of Engagement (2000) doesn't win

Chris Thom
2025-03-04 15:18:00 +0000 UTCTo be fair, if HoD was beaten out by Jaws 2, I'd have to do a George McFly chuckle. Then again, if Cannonball Run ever gets on a poll, you know it'll be on there with Thelma and Louise.

2025-03-04 15:17:36 +0000 UTCHaven't seen it in a long time but I don't remember much about the courtroom scenes either. Mostly just the beginning when they're kids.

2025-03-04 15:16:17 +0000 UTCIf Murder In The First had made the poll too, I'd've thrown a flag.

2025-03-04 15:14:49 +0000 UTCthe Rainmaker is such a great movie, STACKED with cameos

2025-03-04 15:14:39 +0000 UTCYou get 2 for 1, prison drama & legal drama

2025-03-04 15:14:04 +0000 UTCINHERIT THE WIND is a classic everyone needs to see, and THE RAINMAKER is excellent.

Clarence Newman
2025-03-04 15:12:01 +0000 UTCThe Rainmaker is such a hidden gem and probably Coppola’s last good film unfortunately. And you can never go wrong with Sam Jackson and Tommy Lee Jones for Rules of Engagement. Even though I didn’t vote for it, special recognition for Sleepers. Such a stacked cast, but very hard watch.
Blake Evans
2025-03-04 15:11:56 +0000 UTCAh, I really wish I had known you were going to do a courtroom drama poll, because I've got 'From the Hip' ('87) on my list for you... it's a very under-rated 80's courtroom drama-dy starring Judd Nelson with an incredibly chilling performance by the late, great John Hurt (R.I.P.)... highly recommended for anyone looking for an unknown gem of a movie. Another suggestion for this list would be 'Disclosure' ('94), starring Demi Moore and Michael Douglas... technically not a courtroom drama (more of a crime mystery drama), but then many of those listed aren't.
Story Archer
2025-03-04 15:11:45 +0000 UTCIt's a great film - but a courtroom drama?
Story Archer
2025-03-04 15:08:54 +0000 UTCAh, ok I must've missed that. That's good, hopefully it gets it's time to shine on the channel soon then!

2025-03-04 15:07:40 +0000 UTCI watched a Sleepers reaction on Shandor At The Cinema the other day and it absolutely blew him away
Milton William Burray
2025-03-04 15:06:53 +0000 UTCSurely (or Shirely) these polls will lead to a Courtroom Movie Theme Week (Order in the CourtBed)? Top three, or riot!!
MikeLL
2025-03-04 15:06:29 +0000 UTCI've seen it requested a lot on the PIB YouTube channel.
Chris Thom
2025-03-04 15:05:07 +0000 UTCI chose The Rainmaker on this one, because, once again, still relevant. Health Insurance companies are even now STILL under the microscope (UnitedHealth anyone?). When your husband, wife, son, daughter, mother ,father, etc. are denied a medical claim, what do you do? Do you just let it go, or do you try to at least try to get a lawyer and fight back? Still very relevant.

Chris Retzlaff
2025-03-04 15:03:56 +0000 UTCHad to vote for it out of sheer respect for the consistency. I have no idea what it's about though.
Chris Thom
2025-03-04 15:03:37 +0000 UTCI love all of these but I'm pulling for Inherit the Wind and Sleepers.
TJ
2025-03-04 15:02:55 +0000 UTCYeah, I really don’t want to see Horror of Dracula on a general horror poll and watch it get beat by some inferior sequel garbage.
Richard Maurer
2025-03-04 15:02:28 +0000 UTCOr The Trial of The Chicago 7 for that matter too!
Shehab Dawoud
2025-03-04 15:01:42 +0000 UTCThis is a great courtroom movie. Action, suspense and romance.
Randy Schuh
2025-03-04 15:01:35 +0000 UTCInherit the Wind LETS GO!!!!!! Spencer Tracey, a very small supporting roll for Gene Kelly which is a strange thing to see given his leading man status at the time. Based on real life events, with some of the best movies quotes from Tracey.
Michael G
2025-03-04 15:01:33 +0000 UTCThat's a good idea.
Chris Thom
2025-03-04 15:00:55 +0000 UTCSurprised the Trial of the Chicago 6 or 7 isn't on either list. To many great courtroom movies

2025-03-04 15:00:29 +0000 UTCI’m sure she hoped that putting it on the poll would be enough to do that
Cole Jennett
2025-03-04 15:00:27 +0000 UTCWouldn't mind seeing Rainmaker again. It's been a while. Always down for another Francis Ford Coppola film on the channel.
Chris Thom
2025-03-04 15:00:10 +0000 UTCDon’t want to be a downer Mike but you know what happened to Bjorn with Show Me Love. Don’t get your hopes up too high. I voted for it, by the way.
Richard Maurer
2025-03-04 14:58:37 +0000 UTCWow got 5 of my suggestion on here (not sure if that’s just luck/a coincidence 😂😂), the downside is Cassie only watching one film. I wouldn’t really mind if she watches the winner from each poll, I’m sure I’m not the only one that would be ok with it.
Dean Holt
2025-03-04 14:58:17 +0000 UTCI'll make everbody a deal, if Indictment wins, no comments from me for a month. Here's your chance to shut me up. Choose wisely. (How's that for a bribe?) edit- starting after the reactions.
Mike Lemon
2025-03-04 14:56:53 +0000 UTCI did too, just because.
MikeLL
2025-03-04 14:56:37 +0000 UTCTHE LINCOLN LAWYER was just a great turn for Matthew McConaughey and a well paced story that keeps the viewer engaged. Cassie and Carly will love.
Above Average Dave
2025-03-04 14:55:48 +0000 UTCI wish To Kill a Mockingbird was up here, but I guess she's seen it, So I'm going to have to go with Sleepers. Inherit the Wind and The Rainmaker are also great movies.
Eddie Perkins
2025-03-04 14:55:16 +0000 UTCI feel like I never hear people talk about The Judge, really good movie.
PatientZero.5
2025-03-04 14:54:45 +0000 UTCIt's a miracle! Now I just need a lot of people to accidentally vote for it.
Mike Lemon
2025-03-04 14:53:22 +0000 UTCYou're out of order! I'm out of order! This entire poll is out of order!
Clarence Newman
2025-03-04 14:50:53 +0000 UTCHoly crap it made the poll! Good luck Mike.
My_Cousin_Mose
2025-03-04 14:50:46 +0000 UTCBro where is ... And Justice For All? It's maybe Pacino's finest work after Godfather 1 & 2, and is universally recognized as one of the best in the genre. It also hasn't been on courtroom polls in the past. I don't understand that.
Shehab Dawoud
2025-03-04 14:49:24 +0000 UTCINHERIT THE WIND all the way. Lots of good ones on this list but there's a reason why ITW has its reputation.
Matt Rose
2025-03-04 14:48:26 +0000 UTCCongratulations to Mike Lemon. And my condolences at the same time.
MikeLL
2025-03-04 14:48:08 +0000 UTCWell, that's a huge shout-out to Mike Lemon! I don't think I've heard anyone else pushing for the McMartin Trial but Mike loves it. I think he must've been writer, director, lead actor and best boy. I'm voting for it.
Clarence Newman
2025-03-04 14:48:00 +0000 UTCWas hoping to see Murder in the First w Kevin Bacon in either poll. Maybe next time?
mikethemotormouth
2025-03-04 14:47:37 +0000 UTCI thought this poll would be easier once I saw The Rainmaker. But I love The Lincoln Lawyer also. So voted for both. Sorry, Spencer and Fedric, you will both have to wait!
MikeLL
2025-03-04 14:46:38 +0000 UTCYou gals should get judge's robes for these and render your verdicts after watching them. 😁

2025-03-04 14:46:36 +0000 UTCHurricane and Sleepers are my favourites for this one, but neither are full on courtroom.
