Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story. Not because I am any kind of martial arts movie afficionado (though I might enjoy a good one every now and then), but rather this: Like Bruce Lee, I felt all my life as if I were caught between two or three different cultures, and all of the tensions/struggles associated with such an existence. I remember a quote once from the movie Selena, given by Edward James Olmos, who played Selena's father in the movie. Went something like: "The problem with being a Mexican-American is that when we interact with the Mexicans, we have to be even more Mexican than they are in order to be accepted. And when we interact with the Americans, we have to do the same in order to be accepted by them." Great line from that movie.
Great job (though I didn't get to see it) last night by the Bruins. They did exactly what I said they had to do in order to keep their hopes alive.
