I was in school from 88-91, so it was long enough after Body Heat that it was starting to be recognized as a classic. I switched my Wills Trusts and Estates section from a beloved and entertaining professor to a dry as toast adjunct dragging himself in to twice a week evening classes because I could tell the regular professor was going to be fun in class but murder in grading. I figured that sitting through the adjunct's section would be murder but he would make up for it by being an easier grader.
Classes were a slow death. I survived by reading the little commentaries at the end of the chapter. Most were only slightly less boring than the lecture, but at the end of the chapter on the Rule Against Perpetuities was a discussion of Body Heat. I rented it and after a few minutes of Kathleen Turner's sultry voice and steamy skin, I forgave my poor, bedraggled adjunct prof for every minute of torture.
The adjunct did turn out to give better grades than the regular professor, so it all worked out for me and I can honestly say that I learned something valuable in Wills, Trusts and Estates.
KC, it doesn't sound too complicated but I'd still use an attorney to set it up. It should be a $1,000 $1,500 sort of project. Shop around to find someone who does only wills, trusts & estates and is able to turn something like this over in a couple of hours. You don;t want someone reinventing the wheel.
