Fox's Finest Hour

This was like watching "Our Town" By Thornton Wilder, but better ~ with the established characters of "Family Ties". Michael J. Fox was never so brilliant in bringing all of Alex's character traits into the light for examination.

We are taken through never-seen-before memories of Alex's young life, as he reflects on the meaning of life, while facing a personal tragedy. We are given several glimpses into Alex's growing up years, which explains some of the reasons he has grown up as he has.

I was charmed to see how impressionable & vulnerable Alex could be. In a regular episode, we might see a second of the Alex-deep-down; but here, and the concluding next episode; we become part of Alex' psyche as we wrestle with him through a pivotal moment in his life.

As an actor, I have never seen Mr. Fox be so compelling & likable as he was in these episodes. I rooted for his character while I applauded the skill of the young man on stage.

Citas
Alex P. Keaton: There are winners, and there are losers in life - and there's no getting around that.
Psychiatrist: So... you think your father's a weak man, then?
Alex P. Keaton: ...No.
Psychiatrist: But you just said...
Alex P. Keaton: Just let me finish.
Psychiatrist: Sorry.
Alex P. Keaton: ...I used to think that way; I'm embarrassed by it now... that I could be so blind to his strength. He has great love, my father - not just for his family, but for life. He doesn't have to make you wrong for him to be right; he doesn't have to make you a loser to be a winner himself... I wish I was more like my father.
