"The Paper Chase" has a sharp script with plenty of smart dialogue, but what stood out most to me about this college years drama was the impenetrable supporting performance by John Houseman.

This movie was a little slow to get started, but in the end I didn't hate it. This movie is really for law school people. I mean, anyone can watch it, but you get that extra connection to it when you are in law school and you can feel the pain and fear instilled in these people by exams and...((suspensful music)).....THE PROFESSOR. This movie is watchable, but defintely not by all.
