Description: James Hart starts his first year at Harvard Law School in a very bad way. The film is a faithful adaptation of the novel, although it adds two things not in the book: Hart's first name and middle initial (James T.) and his grade in contract law (93, an A) In both the novel and the film, Hart makes a paper airplane out of the unopened letter containing his grades and sends it sailing into the ocean.
