The Paper Chase is a 1970 novel, as well as a 1973 film based on the novel and a television series based on the movie.
A TV Series about a bunch of Law students, their everyday lives and their effort to make it through Law School. Hart, Ford, Bell and the rest of them have to face Kingsfield,
the most feared of professors but they are determined to study hard and eventually get their diploma.
To help cope with the heavy workload, James joined a study group consisting of other students who worked together sharing notes and assignments.
The group was organized by Franklin Ford - III, a would-be third generation lawyer from a socially prominent family. Others in the group included: Anderson, Bell, Logan and
Brooks - who was the only married person in the group - and who left school after he got caught cheating.
Hart also had a part-time job at Ernie's Pizza. There he met Carol, a waitress who admired him but couldn't understand his deep dedication to his studies. Mrs.Nottingham was Professor Kingsfield's secretary.
When James Hart finally graduated in 1986, he hoped to get a teaching position at the law school he had attended.
His appointment never happened and he joined a law firm in the last original episode.
