onscreen with his real-life wife. For some reason, he was also willing to play a lawyer who is inexplicably good at gymnastics, and who will occasionally burst into flips when the mood strikes., the 1993 thriller based on the enormously popular John Grisham novel. In the film version, Cruise plays Mitch McDeere, a brilliant Harvard law student who accepts his dream job at a Memphis law firm named Bendini, Lambert & Locke.
The other lawyer and his wife are understandably impressed by this sudden and unmotivated physical outburst. But then the conversation turns to other matters and the topic never really comes up again. A few minutes later, Mitch accepts the job at Bendini, Lambert & Locke, and a few minutes afterAt that point, he’s way too busy trying to stay alive and out of prison to do more backflips.
1) The tumbling was a shout out to the family, that may still be down on Beale Street to this very moment. 2) Yes. Mitch did love Gymkata.
Oh god I forgot all about this scene. I must have scrubbed it from my memory.
The Firm is so so so good though- even the gymnastics (which I think are mentioned in the book?) just make for an awesome random character moment. Also...can we about 1993? The Firm, In the Line of Fire, The Fugitive, Indecent Proposal...That's just top of mind.
