At The Movies

 

When was the last time you saw a really good movie, had fresh, buttery popcorn, or actually cheered out loud at the end?


Have you ever enjoyed a performance so much that you sent the actor a letter?


Was the story so well written that you really didn’t know until the end?

 

These are just a few things you’ll never see on the Antique’s Road Show.  They are  small parts of our past that have been trampled by technology.  Computer schnanigians has replaced actual talent. The telling of a good story has been overshadowed by graphic violence, explosions and so-called movie stars.


It took an entire movie to get to the little smile on Dustin Hoffman’s face, as he rode away in the back of the bus with Elaine sitting next to him, but that smile was the perfect ending.


It was pure creativity to stop the film at the end of Butch Cassidy but keep the soundtrack going.


The antiques left abandoned in our attics are not the treasures, the  memories in our attic that still make us smile, those are priceless.  



My 2 cents
