Another lawyer I don't recall being listed is played by Gregory Peck (at his
most wooden) in Hitchcock's THE PARADINE CASE.  (Charles Laughton has a
supporting role as a despicable barrister.)
 
Regarding Food in Medieval Films:
I believe that eating scenes occur in several Shakespeare adapations:
HAMLET (more in Zefferelli/Gibson than Olivier, I think), Polanski's
MACBETH, and of course Falstaff rarely stops eating in CHIMES AT MIDNIGHT
(the Welles reworking of the Henriad).  There's the remarkable banquet
scene in Eisenstein's IVAN THE TERRIBLE, PART I.
 
I haven't seen these, but you might want to check Pasolini's CANTERBURY
TALES, Robert Wagner in PRINCE VALIANT, and then there are all those
knights-in-armor movies that Robert Taylor made in the 1950s.
