            There are loads of great movies to watch from the classic time.  I am not sure how far back
you are talking.  Try The Osbow Incident with Henry Fonda, On the Waterfront, with young Marlon Brando
The Great Escape with Dustin Hoffman, and Steve Mcqueen...thats just a start..  Serpico, and The Godfather I an II.
Those are great movies, not too cheery however in most cases...Streetcar Named Desire, with Marlon Brando again, and Vivien Leigh....it is particularly good.      
             Glad to see you back around.  I liked your poem too.  Seemed like the symbolic death of a person... Or a love...JMO

here it is, please read, and tell me what you think and what you think its about!!!


Self

The man with
The smooth mountain range
Is caressing songs on the lonely plain

He died today, I am afraid
A sense of needing,
No one gave
Clenched my soul,
Now plus one,
Together, whole
No matter what was done

At last, the clouds open,
But the rain is not sour,
It's sweet, it's lovely,
In this blissful hour

For one that's dead cannot defy-
One that's dead cannot deny

Earth Shine on the desert moon!
Stoking Pillows on a silver spoon!

Thus the truth came a little late
To save my statue from my fate

Rest forever
He will, in my hold
Singing songs for us-
We will never grow old

Is it about Ennis? Or was BBM the inspiration for it? LOL, you can tell what my obsession is? There are such vivid images in your poem that it's going to take me several rereadings to even begin to understand it! Especially the line, "Earth shine on a desert moon" turns the world inside out for me! THanks for blowing my mind today, Phoenix, I needed that!!

Wow! Pheonix is going to be an adult! Well, I think he is going to make a fine one. Best wishes to you my friend, on lifes journey, no matter where it takes you or what you have to put up with whenyou get there!

I did a youtube search for "Happy Birthday Pheonix" and found the following, which was made for a girl, but wth, the imagery is appropriate...... :-*
