Name some decent courtroom dramas (Movies)

[Things change I've changed]

Hi guys, I've still got a few days of my holiday left from work and want to spend it indoors, heating on full, being lazy wrapped up in a blanket watching some good old courtroom dramas !!

So what are your recommendations ?

I like 'feel good' courtroom dramas if that helps.

cheers

Its not a courtroom drama as such but The Devil's Advocate is a great movie imo.

To Kill a Mockingbird
Judgement at Nuremberg

Not a fan of courtroom dramas, but I recall watching one a few years ago that I thought was damn good. Had Richard Gere in as the lawyer and Edward Norton as the accused.

Primal Fear, that was it - ending was quality.

12 Angry Men

Not just the best courtroom drama of all time but simply one of the best films. Runaway Jury as also mentioned is passable but not even close to being in the same league.

Commas: use them.

Thank you Thank you Thank you!

When I spotted this thread this film sprung to mind but I could not remember the name or who was it in. Been searching with no luck and it's been driving me mad.

A good one just recently was on BBC 1 named Garrows law, give it a look it was good. Gave a historical overview of the progression on the law of evidence through the common law into modern legislation.
