Résumé anglais |
The theatricality of American justice is inscribed in the U.S. Constitution and inherent in the adversarial system of jury trials. Far from frowning upon the commercial exploitation of the legal process by the cinema, American professors occasionally use movies as teaching tools in law schools. U.S. trial lawyers often see themselves as actors in real-life courtroom dramas and some even take acting classes. A few find a second career on television where numerous programs tap the theatricality of American justice and the interest it inspires in TV-viewers. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
