...earthy smile, is a love-struck leftover from turn-of-the-century melodrama, yet speaks the language of the contemporary soldier. Like the cars its heroes steal and riotously wreck, the script starts strong but plots its own collision course, and eventually piles up in a harmless heap of miscellaneous parts that no longer mesh. The viewer, who begins by sympathizing with the Flim Flam Man, ends film-flammed as another one of his victims...

The few roads which cross the Sinai desert are lined with burnt-out trucks and tanks, while the Mitla Pass (a strategic pass through the mountains of Western Sinai near the Suez Canal) appears to be an enormous junk-heap of scrap metal.

Atop a garbage heap near Park Avenue stood a sour sign: "Fun City...

Your name should be big enough to get you into movies, perhaps playing yourself in one of your big cases. Another natural: a weekly interview show on TV where you could cross-examine famous people. Say you are doing it to raise the level of TV and to show young lawyers that there is no taint attached to criminal...
