27 July, 2009, it's Movie Monday
« on: July 24, 2009, 10:05:39 AM »
Annalisa talked abut this when she signed off yesterday afternoon.  The idea being basically film sledgehammers, e.g. "In Your Eyes" from Say Anything.

If you've ever seen Testament, the nuclear war flick from '83, you know that the Beatles' "All My Loving" is used in a way that made me cry buckets of tears, one of the few movies that has ever had that effect on me. A sledgehammer indeed.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

Had the same effect on me, and many movie-goers I think. One of the most powerful films of the 80s, and it's barely remembered.

If that's a Dirty Dancing reference, I sure as hell hope Annalisa isn't lurking right now to find last minute ideas.
