...convinced that a significant number of my classmates who are now working in corporate law firms will at some point in their career consider government, non-profit or public interest law.

To date, most of the independent film companies that went public in the mid-'80s have been stock-market duds. Will Brooks beat the odds? Some Wall Streeters are cautiously optimistic: "Mel has the ability and contacts to make a success of this," says analyst Harold Vogel of Merrill Lynch.
