Abstract: The transition from teaching predictive legal writing in the fall semester to teaching persuasive legal writing in the spring semester can be tricky for students. In particular, the framing of facts is a skill that students are tentative to experiment with when they begin persuasive writing. This exercise affords students the opportunity to experiment with fact framing in a familiar context (films), observe fact framing in published opinions, and then apply that skill to framing facts for their writing assignments.
