I argue that the immersive quality of the film provides a medium well-suited to contextualising this subject; that it fosters a sense of the human frailty at the heart of one of the criminal law's central institutions: the trial by jury. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Web Journal of Current Legal Issues, v.3, p. 1-9 | Publisher: | Web Journal of Current Legal Issues Ltd | Place of Publication: | United States of America | ISSN: | 1360-1326 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 180110 Criminal Law and Procedure 130299 Curriculum and Pedagogy not elsewhere classified |
