    important. The law system of the United States is like that of any other nation. It has room for error. It was created by humanity and just like it’s creator it can have imperfections. These possible imperfections are shown in the movie when the The Accused was very useful as a law-related learning tool because it gave examples of procedures in our legal system and even gave me a chance to see what a trial might be like in real life.
