My wife is trying to come up with debates scenes in movies for the logic class she's teaching.

All I can think of is The Great Debaters and Old School. Can you come up with any?

TIA

wasn't there one in Dead Poets Society? Maybe not "formal debating" ... but ... informal? -- nm - JenBro Feb 17, 16:08
Casanova has one in the beginning. Rocket Science from 2007 features a debate team. -- nm - Max Feb 17, 16:07

The climactic courtroom scene in A Few Good Men leaps to mind, but I don't think it qualifies. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Feb 17, 16:00 1

didn't Billy Madison have one...I remember them on a stage, but I could be mixing it up with Old School -- nm - J Feb 17, 16:00 1
