Case Study: Hollywood in India: Protecting Intellectual Property
- Read the case
- Watch trailers from the movies Hitch and Partner. Clips can be found on YouTube.
- Watch trailers for the movies My Name is Khan and Forest Gump. Clips can be found on YouTube.
- How can we identify plagiarism in a movie? How about software, images and books?
- Is Partner a plagiarized version of Hitch? How can you tell? Both movies are about a “dating coach”, i.e., a man who helps other men make an impression on women they wish to date. Why can’t we have two different movies with the same idea?
