Remember the movie American Beauty? A man lusts after the underage girlfriend of his daughter and the film even opens with him masturbating in the shower. Usually child molestors and perverts are treated harshly by the public but by the end of the movie we are rooting for him to suceed with the girl (of course she is pretty hot so that helps). Why is the question I wanted to discover. I think it is because we follow him through the movie by hearing his inner dialogue. Thus we get to know him and emphasize with his miserable life. This gives us an insight to how jurors might see our client if we could just expose him or her in a similiar way. Probably a difficult thing to do, just like the wicked witch of the west, but worth pondering. Thanks again for another thought provoking essay.

I took your advice and attended the last showing of Jesus Christ Superstar in Tampa last week. Wow. The production was great and Ted Neeley fabulous. We would not have gone if it had not been at your instigation. When I was a young pilot in the Air Force in 1972 my wife and I used to play the cast record of the musical so often we wore the thing out. And there we were, 36 years later, basking in the warmth of that same music. Thanks BTW: I get your newsletter because I am a student at Barry College of Law in Orlando. I believe that it is never too late to teach an old dog new tricks. I enjoy your website as well as your insight.
