You can sometimes go to these things and feel old, like "I've seen it already!" I think people really underestimate how their mood influences their viewing pleasure.blakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05430444326700437630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268985416439660021.post-62524697639395261212012-04-18T08:35:33.808-07:002012-04-18T08:35:33.808-07:00blake, I'll be 60 this year and I loved this ...blake, I'll be 60 this year and I loved this flick.
