I learned that TL had never seen it, and I remembered it being a lovely movie with a generally good message, although rooted in the times particularly with some of its treatments of women and romance. I wasn't wrong -- it's still a gorgeous movie and I love the music.

When you are not the one directly in the crosshairs, it is imperative that you help the person next to you who is.
When the crosshairs then turn on you, you hope to god that the next person down the line helps you in turn.
