Did you click on this because you like the TV show, Law and Order? If so, I’m sorry, but this has nothing to do with Jerry Orbach, Ice-T or even Skeet Ulrich. It’s about something better. It’s about Frederick Wiseman’s 1969 film, Law and Order, screening tonight at MoMA. All the same plots as the TV show are there—corruption, judges, cops, etc.—but Wiseman’s movie is much more gritty and thought provoking. And doesn’t involve, yes, Skeet Ulrich.
