Musings on life, love and work by a black, jaded, middle-aged -- yet youthful -- husband and father of two really young kids.

The Firm
I watch this flick any time I can. The script, the pace, the actors, even the soundtrack blend together to make the perfect cinematic cocktail. I especially like the scene where Mitch has to confess his infidelity to Abby. She says "You can't promise anything -- ever!" But what I like best is a tale of a smart guy who, while under unfathomable pressure, worked the angles like a geometrist. More than that, he did it to survive, not simply to affirm his superiority over his adversaries.
