..I'd never hire you for your lawyerly skills if this is an example of "proof", as you see it.

Question: Which is more "realistic" A Civil Action or At Close Range?

I understand and agree with your priorities with regard to family. Your boys are at a wonderful age.
Congratulations.

Also like your taste in amps. Which Music Reference model do you have? If it's the RM10 you can be my new best friend.

This is what you asked me: '"...objective provable fact" in a film, prove it.' It is a provable fact that the opening scene in A Civil Action was contrived. Made up. Whatever you want to call it, it simply does not happen as depicted in the film. That is simply a fact, whether you care to admit it or not. I've proven it. I cannot force you to accept the proof, anymore than I can prove to some people the Government did not blow up the twin towers.

RM-200. I'll get the RM10 when I have room for a second system.

  .. you mean "in my experience" then you have..........your argument. You've taken your experience and compared it to a fictional account. That's no broad proof.
  
  Don't you stray. Don't forget how this started. We're talking about film realism. Repeat: which is more realistic (like real life), A Civil Action or At Close Range.
  
  I'll bet there are people who saw Travolta's scene and imagined it to be quite realistic.
  
  The fact is that proof is always relative/contextual. First of all it is personal. That takes us back to our beginning. One man's ......... is another man's ___.
  
  BTW, why would you consider it unfortunate to be in the courtroom practicing law? In my short career as a military defense counsel I relished courtroom action.
