Definitely one of the most underrated films I have ever seen. I only know Lindsay Wagner from those mattress commercials and it was good to see her in an actual acting role. The script was amazing and the direction was very good by James Bridges. I loved how the study group got smaller and smaller by the end of the semester, which of course represented the dropout rate in elite law schools like Harvard. John Houseman gave one the finest performances I have ever seen and he deserved more than Best Supporting Actor since he was a focal point of the story. Excellent ending and definitely should be seen by all law school students.

Classic. Sparked a TV series. Great morals.

This film is a hyperbole. Its representation of law school is dated and severe. However, it captures the mood of the first year of law school perfectly.

I was 26, my father had cancer, I was working 60 hour weeks and living in a dive...then I stumbled onto this. Greatest movie about education/higher learning of all time. Yeah, and you really shouldn't let school get in the way of your education. Ooops, I think I just gave away the ending. It's all about character anyway. Odd how Bottoms was never as good and that Houseman could be so f***ing good at this stage of his career.

Not a huge fan of the ending, but I found this to be a most inspiring film about a first year law student at Harvard. Certainly the movie has its flaws (due to its decade of release) such as style, acting, and musical selection, but the human emotions--the pain, the joy, the ambiguity, and passion--drive this story and make it actually quite riveting. Of course, being a first-year law student I may be a little biased as to the plot, but you have my opinion, for what it's worth.
