[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I remember loving this movie soooo much, and at the time had an on again off again bff type and thought I could relate. At the time I also thought 28 was so old. The scene on the boat seemed so deep to me... "Before the moment passes you by..." Sigh.

But yeah, no I realize they're all cringy. He's way too old for Kimmy. Kimmy is young and insecure. Julia Roberts is too desperate. He leads her on.

Still has a great soundtrack though![/quote]
Love the soundtrack. The whole reason I decided to rewatch it was because the man who composed most of those songs recently died and I hadn’t realized that he wrote basically every love song in that movie [/quote]

You don’t remember “the man”’s name is Burt Bacharach?[/quote]

I do…. but most lay people don’t know that name if I said it, so, I said “the man who composed most of the songs in that movie”. [/quote]

On DCUM we know who Burt Bacharach is, and not just "the man who composed most of those songs" in this silly rom-com. Oy.

I'm also not sure most lay people don't know who he is. Wikipedia describes him as "widely regarded as one of the most important and influential figures of 20th-century popular music."[/quote]

Ok I stand corrected. He is as much of a household name as Michael Jackson and needs no descriptor after his name because everyone knows who he is. Moving on![/quote]

For those of us who grew up in the 60s and 70s, yes he was most certainly a household name way before Michael Jackson was!  He wrote the pop soundrack of our lives.[/quote]

Sorry, I didn’t realize so many 65 year olds frequented this site. [/quote]

That’s not an insult, you know.[/quote]

And it wasn’t phrased as one. She said if you grew up in the 60s, Burt Bacharach was a household name. Most people my age (30s) had never heard that name even if we had heard the songs. I didn’t realize so many DCUM posters were elderly. That’s it. [/quote]

I grew up in the 70s and am early 50s. Now I'm elderly? Just stop. [/quote]
