> even better, in imitation of many Hollywood endings, the camera pulls back to show a panorama of perhaps 50 or even 100 people singing "look on the bright side," while dancing on their crosses. I think this is where it's announced that the sound track is for sale in the theater lobby. (BTW, without the late George Harrison, this movie would likely never have gotten to theaters.)
Thanks for that. Il est bon a savoir. I had forgotten that, or maybe I was going a bit blind watching the end of the movie. George H. smoked too many cigarettes, that killed him probably. There was a memorial meeting in LA I think. > > This song also appears in the movie "As Good As It Gets," where Jack Nicholson plays an obsessive-compulsive (very well, in fact) and sings it. I sent that movie to my father some months before he died unexpectedly of a heart attack, as a bit of barbed humour. He did not like it though, he preferred wholesome, aesthetically pleasing movies with depth and inspiration. I do like Burt Lancaster, leaving aside his apologies for imperialism, but the movie I am after I cannot find just now. I was going to say something about Ceasar crossing the Rubicon, but I am mindful that Michael Perelman would not want me to abuse my list privileges with excessive blog... Suffice to say that disorganisation and indecision cause suffering which can be understood in an entirely secular framework. Some bloggers just engage in it as a sideline diversion, but others are forced into blog by the circumstances of life. To blog or not to blog, that is the question.
