Lawyers Out Of Their Depth
Episode 20
It doesn’t matter if you specialize in insurance, personal injury or petty naval law, Hollywood knows attorneys can do anything when the gavel starts pounding. We watched three movies about lawyers in way over their heads, fighting that good fight. Spielberg’s new “Bridge of Spies” pits Tom Hanks against an amoral Cold War world. “My Cousin Vinny” (1992) plays politely with New York and Southern stereotypes in a half-comedic courtroom. And “A Few Good Men” (1992) is novice Sorkin set in screamy military court with a dynamite cast. Now, call your first witness!

Movie Reviews & Reappraisals
Be Reel was a movie reviewing & reappraising podcast hosted by Chance Solem-Pfeifer and Noah Ballard.
We cherished our 8-year run, talking to filmmakers like Gus Van Sant, insulting each other’s taste, and laughing to high heaven.
Chance’s new movie podcast, The Kick, continues to explore curated sub-genres and movie geekery. Noah is a frequent and beloved guest.
