The Firm Movie « Thread Started on Jul 7, 2009, 11:07pm »
Loosely adapted from Alan Clarke’s 1989 classic TV film, Nick Love’s film is set earlier in the 80’s and retells a similar story to the original – but from a different character’s point of view. The film centres on Dom, a young wannabe football casual, who gets drawn into the charismatic but dangerous world of the firm’s top boy, Bex.
Accepted for his fast mouth and sense of humour, Dom soon becomes one the boys. But as Bex and his gang clash with rival firms across the country and the violence spirals out of control, Dom realises he wants out – until he learns it’s not that easy to simply walk away.
Humorous, heart warming and set to a killer jazz funk 80’s soundtrack, The Firm is a classic coming of age story set amongst one of England’s most revered tribes

However, this new generation of youth seem to be very ambitious, and very persistent. Whether it’s to become the next Taylor Swift, Western riding champ, or even to just get the hell out of Aurora; they seem like the bunch to make it big. Yet, it seems like Aurora might be less hidden then imagined. A few of the city dwellers now come here regularly. May be it's to try and find peace in their lives or may be their trying to hide something. Whatever it is they're doing in little Aurora, some folks definitely do not appreciate their presence
