ATL March Madness: The Final Four
A Few Good Men or The Paper Chase? Law & Order or My Cousin Vinny?
It’s Final Four in the only bracket that matters. No, we’re not talking about the NIT — they’re already playing their championship game — we’re talking about the Above the Law showdown of the greatest works of legal fiction of all-time. It’s been a thrilling run through our four regions this year and we finally have champions for our favorite legal movie, book, television show, and… miscellaneous.
But the contest isn’t over. Now these works square off across media to determine the true champion.
You have until Monday, April 2 at 9:00 a.m. Eastern to vote.

(2) A Few Good Men vs. (2) The Paper Chase — With Legally Blonde bowing out early this year, A Few Good Men cruised to victory in our bracket of top legal films. The Paper Chase upset A Time To Kill to reign supreme over our favorite legal books bracket in a close battle. It’s a great showdown for evaluating legal fiction. Better setting: Practice or Law School? Better field of law: Litigation or Transactional? Sexier Lead: Tom Cruise or John Houseman?

(1) Law & Order vs. (3) My Cousin Vinny — Law & Order finally ended Perry Mason’s Cinderella run. Apparently Jack McCoy is no Hamilton Burger.

Meanwhile, our wild miscellaneous bracket ends with dark horse pick My Cousin Vinny eeking out a win over perennial favorite To Kill A Mockingbird.
