> LAW-RELATED MOTION PICTURES ON VIDEO: AN ANNOTATED LIST OF TITLES HELD IN
>THE SOUTHERN ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF LAW LIBRARY is now available for
purchase.
>
>>From the introduction by Frank Houdek, Law Library Director:
>
> "The School of Law library has gradually acquired a large number of popular
>movie titles for its video 'browsing' collection. While the collection has
>been built partially with the intention of providing a respite to students
>from the rigors of the study of law, each of these movies has a 'law
>related' theme. We feel that it is important, if not vital, that students
>understand the "larger" world into which they will soon step. One of the
>essentials in this regard is to see how the law and the legal profession are
>portrayed in the popular culture. And what better place to do that but
>through the medium of the motion picture."
>
>The list is 92 pages long and contains more than 180 titles. Videos are
>listed in alphabetical order and each is annotated with credits, cast, and a
>summary of the film. A detailed subject index is included. It could be used
for both acquisitions and reference purposes as a tool for identifying
movies that deal with law-related themes.
>
>To obtain a copy of the list, send $15 (check payable
>to Southern Illinois University) to
