We take a break from Mike White May to go to college, specifically Harvard Law circa 1970s with The Paper Chase. Starring future presidential look-a-like contest winner Timothy Bottoms, he plays a Midwestern first year law school student enrolled at Harvard Law who runs into one of the true titans of cinematic academia, Professor Kingsfield. Professor David Perlmutter and Mark Stachiw, Esq. join the show to talk law school horror stories, the reality of the film, and whether the ends justify the academic means.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kulturecast--2883470/support.
