The newly enjoyed movie

Although a musical is not (ever) my kind
of enjoyable sit-through, one as of recent -
"Across the Universe" was a very good flick.
It was captivating even the second time I saw it.
Mostly Beatles music for soundtrack - that fit well.
I felt a tear for her boyfriend in "Let It Be" (not
to divulge) , but the jerk is in "all you need is love".
Watch it if you're undecided about which movie...

You sat through a movie? Twice??? Wow, that must be record for you as you are not one to land for that length of time. That fact alone must mean that it is a good movie! The Beatles did have a large impact in the industry, like I can remember seeing Elvis on t.v. the first time (Ed Sullivan SDhow), I also saw trhe Beatles get off the plane in New York City, a bunch of punks with long hair! They were radical and everyone went into an uproar about their apeparance, now we see guys my age with long hair, (has to have a small pony tail tied with a rubber band) and earrings, what is this older generation coming to? They are going to be the ruination of this country!

Them long-haired hippies from London changed a lot of America's views, but then, what hasn't in the last 5 decades? Music has not spelled our generation - our generation has spelled music. Appearance still means a lot to prestige in our country, doesn't it? How blind we can be over different colored views...

If you feel the incessant urge,
and your tongue is sharp and quick,
leave a worthless thought for me
whether cool, or fun, or sick.
