And then, 54 minutes in, Chief Justice Warren said, Mr. Mandela, Chief Justice,
There was my dad.
He sounded young and assured, with a touch of the Bronx I didn't remember from later.
He has to have been nervous, and he was clearly reading from notes, but he talked for 49 minutes almost nonstop, and then Justice Hugo Black paid him a compliment.
This was a consolation prize.
Dad was promoting a losing case.
Two months later, the unanimous decision would go against the government, though I don't recall hearing about that at home.
And if he knew he was losing at the time, I don't hear it in his voice.
In fairness, this was the voice he used when he could still answer to my 13-year-old satisfaction, at least any question put to him.

How many angels fit on the head of a pin?
I had missed that voice more than I knew.

And she's walking down hallways and she's getting into helicopters.
And it's like that teaser trailer for Devil Wears Prada 2.
