Tax Lawyers At the Movies

This post probably would have been à propos April 15, but it's still interesting. From Paul Caron's Tax Prof blog, here are "Tax Movies," courtesy of guest blogger Robert G. Nassau at Syracuse Law.

In addition to the films mentioned, I'd suggest such goodies as Catch Me If You Can (2002) (the story of impersonator Frank Abagnale, Jr.), Jean de Florette (1986), Stranger Than Fiction (2006) (an IRS auditor can suddenly hear someone narrating his life), The Main Event (1979) (tax shelter), The Widow's Might (2009) (a widow fights back against property taxes), and Billy Bathgate (1991) (tax evasion). Check out www.imdb.com for additional films on taxes and their effect on life, the universe, and everything.
