Sins of the Father

Devoted, caring and dedicated: these are the words that spring to Sammie Jr's mind when he thinks of his dead father, Samuel Street' Johnson. Player, liar and deceiver: those are the words Sammie's brothers use to describe the same father. Terrance and Malik are still bitter about their father abandoning them to the harsh realities of poverty, and their mother is beginning to see a little of their father in all the anger and rage within them. How can the brothers ever reconcile their differences? Will Terrance and Malik end up on the same path to self-destruction as their father?'
