do yourself a favor.  never watch the film gideon's trumpet even though (a) it stars henry fonda, and you like henry fonda, and (b) it's about a supreme court case - one that you're interested in.  this movie goes so slowly you think it must be made for a 90 year old...but is only assuming an intelligence level of a 5th grader.  DON'T TAKE 5 MINUTES TO EXPLAIN DOUBLE JEOPARDY AS IF I AM AN IDIOT.  additionally, THIS MOVIE IS AN HOUR AND 45 MINUTES LONG, YET WITH SOME GOOD EDITING WOULD LAST ABOUT 30 MINUTES.

yet, i continue to watch it.  what does this say about me?
