Genre Research: Denial Movie

         A film example of the Legal Drama genre is a movie titled "Denial". It can be found to watch on Hulu, and for sale on other platforms. It dramatizes the Irving v Penguin Books Ltd. case, where David Irving, a holocaust denier, sues author Deborah Lipstadt for libel. Irving tries to prove that there were no gas chambers.
       Lipstadt visits the former Auschwitz concentration campsite to gather evidence that the holocaust did in fact happen. The case concluded with Lipstadt as the victor. I found the film interesting, as it shows the extremities of the beliefs of some people. I liked how the film portrayed the case overall.
