ALI We are curious about your interest in "ALI." We want to hear from you about the film. Tell us what your expectations are or give us your thoughts on ALI, the man. If you are really thorough, let us know your thoughts on what ALI means to Boxing. Hopefully, we will be able to showcase this film for your enjoyment. If you want to read a book about ALI before seeing the film, there are several, but Davis Miller's book, "The Tao of Muhammad Ali" is a great start. Until that time, please send your comments to mailto:info@blackfilm.com. Please enter ALI in the subject line. Please note that we will publish some of your thoughts and observations. Thank you.
