...also hard on herself. On Deep Inside, which cleverly incorporates part of Elton John's Bennie and the Jets, she takes a look at her own emotional baggage. On Not Lookin', Blige derides "player sh__" but is confident enough to bring in male singer (and ex-boyfriend) K-Ci Hailey for a sort of vocal debate.

Before the movie, based on John Grisham's first novel, is over, crosses will burn on the lawn and crucial witnesses will falter on the stand. Worse, Brigance's home will be destroyed by arson, his marriage will be nearly wrecked, and his tempting, perky paralegal (Sandra Bullock) will...
