Yes, I have been INTO movies since my mom’s twin took me to my first “big girl” movie when I was 10 (The Man with the Golden Arm). At 10 I was not as knowledgeable as our president’s son.. not street smart and pretty naive .. saying that about him as did you see his FB and Twitter pages? wow. So I am not sure I got the message of the movie but loved getting caught up in the story, sound, visuals.

But I digress. I give movie producers a LOT of leeway with what they give us . THE WORD DOCUMENTARY is quite different than movies “based on a true story” or “INSPIRED by a true story”. Artistic license makes things good. Even with movies that are fiction based on a novel or other work.

Back to the movie I first saw (yes, I did go to Saturday cartoons at theater, but quite different). I didn’t really understand the movie. (about a junkie) but realized years later that this related big time to my aunt. She had moved in with us and stayed with us a few years. She had moved from NYC.. I realize now that she was either a recovered, still into, or had a lot of friends that way.

She died at 47, just months before my wedding of alcoholism issues.

When I was just five years ago my teen sister took me to see “Psycho” and made me promise not to tell mom, if I did she wouldn’t be able to take me to the five and dime for ice cream anymore. I never told mom, but I afraid to take a bath and had nightmares for a long time.
