Dead Celebrities. Live Lawsuits. Huge Profits.
About this project
THAT'S EAT-ERTAINMENT transforms a glamorous Boca Raton Rat Pack restaurant into a legal minefield involving Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., publicity rights, trademark law, copyright licensing, music usage, memorabilia, branding, and the economics of nostalgia. Students are hired as entertainment counsel to a booming restaurant chain accused of cashing in on dead celebrity identities without permission. The deeper they dig, the uglier—and more fascinating—the business realities become. This project forces students to confront one of entertainment law's hardest truths: sometimes the entire business model is built on borrowed fame. Behind the velvet ropes, candlelight, and martinis sits a brutal legal question: where does homage end and infringement begin?
