As demanding as all of that is, Michel\u2019s world skids to a halt when a randomly chosen juror turns out to be someone from his past. Ditte, played by Borgen star Sidse Babett Knudsen, is a caring single mother who made an indelible impression on Michel six years earlier. Michel, whose reputation for severity has earned him a nickname reflecting the double-digit sentences he likes to hand down, tosses his beloved protocol aside for a series of assignations to explore their mutual attraction. While nodding to courtroom drama and rom-com, Courted conscientiously dodges the clich\u00e9s of both genres.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vudu.com\/content\/browse\/details\/Courted\/1686938?cmp=rt_where_to_watch\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WATCH NOW<\/a><\/h3>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>COURTED | 1986 &#8211; 98&#8242; &#8211;\u00a0 \u00a0DRAMA, COURTROOM.
