Viewing Notes

Every time I watch this I recall the first time viewing this in a dorm room in college all crowded around a small tv and vcr and flipping out. What’s odd is that I never revisited until nearly two decades later and then only recently have come to appreciate it.

It might become a movie I would revisit every year.
