OLD AGE AND LOVE
JUST GOT IN FROM SEEING DUSTIN HOFFMAN IN "LAST CHANCE HARVEY" GOOD FLICK... COULD HAVE BEEN A LITTLE DEEPER..DUG MORE INTO THE PROBLEMS OF AGING..AND LOSS OF IDENTITY..LOSING WORK TO YOUNGER KIDS.. DISTANCE FROM FAMILY..LACK OF COMPANIONSHIP.INTERACTION WITH PARENTS.... BUT IT DID NOT ..BUT IT WAS STILL GOOD...THE GAL IN THE MOVIE MADE ME THINK OF THE WOMEN I MEET ON HERE..THEY ALL WANT TO DABBLE..PLAY ..BUT NOT GET INTO A RELATIONSHIP..DONT WANT TO GET HURT AGAIN..TRUST AGAIN.. I WONDER WHY THE MEN ARE WILLING TO RISK IT AGAIN..BUT NOT THE WOMEN..
MEN HAVE TO GO OUT ON A LIMB..ALL THE TIME...MAKE THE FIRST CONTACT..ASK HER OUT.. MAKE THE FIRST MOVE.. TOWARD A PHYSICAL RELTIONSHIP..WE TAKE ALL THE RISK OF REJECTION ALL OF THE TIME.. AND KEEP BOUNCING BACK FOR MORE..
MAYBE AT HEART ...MEN ARE MORE POSITIVE..MAYBE THEY DREAM MORE..BELIEVE IN FINDING THAT POT OF GOLD...MAYBE ITS THE LITTLE BOY IN THEM THAT NEVER QUITE GROWS UP ..OR GIVES UP....
THE MOVIE HAD NO GREAT LOVE SCENES..BUT MANY TENDER MOMENTS.. AND I THINK ..THAT WAS NICE...IT MOVED SLOW.. QUIET ..COMFORTABLE.. SERENE... INTIMATE..IN THAT IT EVOLVES..IN LOOKS AND GLANCES..GESTURES..RATHER THAN THE HOT PASSION OF YOUTH
WAS A GOOD FILM..WORTH THE $$$
AND A NICE REMINDER THAT ...AFTER ALL LOVE MAY BE ..JUST AROUND THE CORNOR
