"This movie analysis contains spoilers"\ This blog is not owned by a professional movie reviewer. The Paper Chase,  an English film   directed by  James Bridges  -in  1973. Story by  John Jay Osborn Jr. My initial thought on this movie after reading the synopsis was that this is not a courtroom drama, but just a plain drama that revolves around a hardworking law student, who struggles between his studies and relationship. I had second thoughts on watching this film, as I was expecting more of hardcore like the previous film, 12 Angry men, or killing a mocking bird. Then I thought why not.  I was correct of course, this story was plain drama. We still can get the juice of it.  The lead character, James.T.Hart ( Timothy Bottoms ) a first-year student join a study group to share outlines of their course. A group consisting of six, each chooses a subject, works on the outline (notes) and shares with the rest of the group for the final exam. However, t...

  "This movie analysis contain spoilers"\ This blog is not owned by a professional movie reviewer 12 Angry Men, a English film   directed by  Reginal Rose -in  1957. 12 juries  The story evolves around twelve juries with their perspectives, ideas, opinions and backgrounds to decide whether a minor Spanish boy from the slum is innocent in a murder trial. Each jury has their own characteristics, in fact they are all grown men. The most important jury is jury number #8. The story reveals the name, as Davis in the end. The taste of the movie is that, the effort of jury #8 being creative and logic to think and persuade others to stand by the justice.   Personally, I could understand the story well, of course certain scenes are deep, has to be read from other sources for better understanding. My favorite is jury #9. He is the only reason to flicker the flame of justice. Which means that, when juty #8 was struggling alone to say his thoughts, this old man her...

 'This movie analysis has spoilers' As a legal enthusiast, I reminded myself to read and watch the classics before I can comment or critic in any of the current legal situations. For a start, I watched this famous movie [have not read the book yet] and decided to write down my reflection after watching it based on two forms; First, reflecting on legal basis. Second, reflecting overall in life. [Socio-Politic-Economy] I would like to divide this movie reflection into two.  Overall Reflection  This movie was based on Harper Lee's 1960 novel 'To Kill a Mocking Bird. Some backstory about the author is that, his father was a lawyer and he has defended two negroes on murdering a white shopkeeper.    The movie starts with Scott (Jean Louis Finch) a girl and daughter of Mr Finch (The lawyer) and her brother Jem living in the hot Maycomb, Alabama. The story is narrated by grown Scott as a voiceover. They hear about a man named Boo, who eats rabbits and cockroaches, ugly ...

If the arbitration clause lacks autonomy, then there is no reason why Arbitral Tribunal should follow rest of the contract.  If the arbitration clause is autonomous, it has a life on its own. Therefore, it has to be treated as an agreement and will not be affected by possible nullity of the contract to which it belongs.  The arbitration clause survives the demise of the main contract then constitutes the necessary agreement of th...
