Purple Rain on the Big Screen


Purple Rain

Last night was Thursday Night Flashback at the movie theatre in Fresno and Purple Rain was this week's flashback movie. So, in spite of my flight delays and having to lower myself to drive a red Mustang back from the Bay Area, we decided that it was only right that we should go along.

Jim and Letty joined us for dinner at Salazar's before heading up to Fresno to take our seats in the auditorium that was already 3/4 full of other people around about our age out to relive what it was like watching it at the movies the first time around. That is, if you had seen it at the movies the first time around - believe it or not, this was actually my first time seeing it out in public.

Anyway, we sang along, waved our hands and laughed in all the right places - "What's the password?" - as well as some other places. Certainly the haircuts, make up, clothes and sunglasses have dated quite hilariously. But the music? Pretty much timeless.

What's wrong with a red Mustang - I seem to remember cruisiing around LA in one and looking "well cool"?!!!

UlloaSullivan thinks...

... not everyone can pull off wearing Orange but Connor Kirchman, like myself, is one of them.
