The Firm (1993)
1993 | Drama, Mystery, Thriller
Based on the book
Mitch Mcdeere (Cruise) is a hard working law student who is being coveted by multiple firms at once. However the firm of Bandini, Lambert and Locke makes him an offer he can't pass up. He and his wife Abby (Tripplehorn) pick up and move to Memphis where the firm is located so he can begin to study for the bar. Just as he gets his feet wet two long time lawyers with the firm die in what is presumed to be a boating accident while they were in the Caymens. Mitch then soon starts to learn of a darker side of this establishment and the FBI wants him to help them put a case together. Mitch must decide what is more important to him. Is it his career as a lawyer or his family and love of his life.

This movie is based on the book The Firm by Jhon Grisham. The book was much better but, the movie did it justice.

The Manifesto on How to be Interesting

This was my first Holly Bourne novel and I had had it on my TBR for ages and kicked myself for not picking it up sooner. I love YA contemporary books, I love all the feels you get and how invested you get into the story. I was surprised how much I loved this book. I liked Bree and it was interesting to see how much she developed as a character. This book showed you that you didn’t need to be popular to be interesting but it also showed how uncomfortable it was trying to fit in with a crowd that is not the norm for you. It showed valuable life lessons and had really powerful messages. I would have rated this 5 stars but the ending didn’t turn out as I wanted it to but I still loved it. This book does have a teacher/student relationship, so if that’s not your thing I would steer clear.
