<<I had to sneek in to the movie when it was
first in theaters because it had an X rating! >>
Hard to believe that X rating given today's standards, huh? I didn't see it in the
theaters, I saw many chopped-up versions on TV before I saw the complete uncut version
many years later on video.
But I *did* see the previews at the theater, and it singularly inspired me to get into
acting, if only at the community theatre "Waiting For Guffman" level! :~)
And that SHOULD have been Dustin's first Oscar, except the Academy gave it to John
Wayne for True Grit because he was dying of cancer...
JC: Glen Campbell, also in True Grit, turns in a fine rendition of BSN. Hell, Wayne
probably did one too, we just don't have it yet! :~D
Anyway, thanks for that info. I'm 100% convinced that Joni wrote her song based on the
1965 book. It'll take a good argument to convince me otherwise...
