Feelgood!

Rating: 10/10 (23 January 2016)

Just watched TTYD for maybe the 4th time since it came out. It's still top of my list of feel-good movies. It's a simple and quite light story, but it loses nothing for being that. The music is fun, the acting is pretty good ... and Liv is, as always, fabulous. The story-line could be typical of the experiences of bands back in the 60s and, although they turned out to be the one-shot-Wonders, the music is most evocative of the times. I was 15 in the year that this story is set and was listening to The Stones, The Beatles, Creedance, Cream, Dave Clark et al. If TTYD had been released back then, I'd have been listening to the Wonders too.
22 August 2016 - Flash: Turns out that I am, after all, a total sucker for this movie. "Feelgood" is exactly what it is. I'm in the middle of watching it ... yet again. I'm still in love with Liv Tyler and, if I was so inclined, I'd be in love with Tom Everett Scott too. At the risk of repeating myself, this is such a great movie and a credit to Tom Hanks.
