It is probably pitched a level below the average 2L but still very useful. <br /><br />This Friday we are also having an optional showing of The Informant with free popcorn for the Antitrust Class, the international antitrust seminar, and the antitrust student fellowship.<br /><br />Have any others of our merry band found that film of pedagogical value?Spencerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08470063653402426122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1971897116861833908.post-9610529898031165752013-02-11T15:44:07.416-08:002013-02-11T15:44:07.416-08:00Speaking of movies (but not of Conclaves), I was r...Speaking of movies (but not of Conclaves), I was reading the LUC Institute for Consumer Antitrust's comprehensive pop culture document and noticed the PBS documentary, Fair Fight in the Marketplace. I bought the movie and showed it in class last week. Student reactions were uniformly positive. The film does a good job of showing a variety of antitrust claims on the basis of a variety of conduct. Throw in a beer merger and you'd have the trifecta. Thanks to the Institute for the heads up.Maxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07722786211652015559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1971897116861833908.post-90957022422004402022013-02-11T14:26:57.263-08:002013-02-11T14:26:57.263-08:00Which of course reminds me of my favorite movie ab...Which of course reminds me of my favorite movie about academics saving the day at a papal conclave, Angels and Demons. Which of us will play the role Professor Robert Langdon (aka Tom Hanks)? And how do the Illuminati fit into this?<br /><br />Spencerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08470063653402426122noreply@blogger.com
