The Paper Chase

Drama

"The study of law is something new and unfamiliar to most of you, unlike any other schooling you have ever known before. You teach yourselves the law, but I train your minds. You come in here with a skull full of mush and, if you survive, you leave thinking like a lawyer". In this series based on the movie of the same name, law students deal with the ethical issues of the law while dealing with their personal lives.
