Relying upon my friend's recommendations,I rented a couple of English films to watch. And Justice For All(1979):This one is superb,meant for Al Pacino fans and those who love watching films based on court-proceedings and how the jury works. Rating:8/10 (Must-see)

Welcome to myLot, newbie! We get such wonderful discussions going with new ideas from new people all the time! That's one of my all-time favorite films. It seems pretty outrageous, but its much more realistic than anyone can imagine. I've seen attorneys come to court drunk or high, with no knowledge of the case they're involved in, because they just didn't take the time to prepare. I've seen judges fast asleep during the precedings, or on their cell phones, deep in discussions that have no relations with the cases they're supposed to try fairly. I've heard some of the nastiest, most prejudiced remarks coming not from the accused, but from lawyers and judges! I must admit, when I say the Pledge of Allegiance in class every morning, I end it, "with liberty and justice for some"!
