It was a great record, brought back all of the movies, we were big Fellini fans. I wonder if I'd be able to sit through Juliet Of The Spirits today. I wonder where I could borrow it but doubt watching it on my computer screen would be at all the same. I still say the scene of the fascist rally in Amarcord where all the adults are having orgasms over Mussolini is a good summary of the Washington Press Corps during the Reagan and Bush regimes.
"It seems to me that to organize on the basis of feeding people or righting social injustice and all that is very valuable. But to rally people around the idea of modernism, modernity, or something is simply silly. I mean, I don't know what kind of a cause that is, to be up to date. I think it ultimately leads to fashion and snobbery and I'm against it." Jack Levine: January 3, 1915 – November 8, 2010 LEVEL BILLIONAIRES OUT OF EXISTENCE

OK, I Feel Old Now
Talking with my brother about when the incident with the album, Amarcord Nino Rota happened, we figured it must have been about thirty three years ago. It seems like it was yesterday. Which, considering the name of the album, is appropriate. On the other hand, I doubt I could move that much rock phosphate today. Five bags and I'd need to see an osteopath or something.
