Harvard finally agreed to relinquish control the photographs of "Papa" Renty . https://t.co/VMT763ICD0. The story of the fight is beautifully told in Free Renty, a film that the UCLA Doc Film Legal Clinic proudly supported with pro bono legal advice. https://t.co/bKHACtyLK9

The Fair Use article I co-authored with my friend, Karen Shatzkin, has been published in UCLA's Entertainment Law Review. Karen and I hope the article will help practitioners and filmmakers understand the landscape after the decision last term in Warhol.

My colleagues at the UCLA Doc Film Legal Clinic and I met with a group of Ukrainian filmmakers last week, thanks to the State Dept. and UCLA's International Visitors Bureau. We talked about legal and business issues and the obstacles they face in telling their compelling stories

I'm delighted to learn that one of the UCLA Doc Clinic's favorite client films -- Anonymous Sister -- will be screening in Santa Monica. The film is a deeply personal look at one family grappling with the opioid epidemic. Join me. It's a great film.https://t.co/jMNbYDTYCv

Another recommendation: Sam Now, which premieres on PBS on May 8th. The UCLA Doc Film Clinic had the pleasure of providing legal support to director Reed Harkness and his colleagues on this deeply personal and affecting film. Watch it! https://t.co/tWMtIu0SWJ
