Although this movie was made 8 years before I was, I saw it for the first time yesterday and I was blown away! I have spent my life missing what has just become one of my favorite movies of all time.

The acting was superb, the storyline riveting and the characters were people you could care about. Max was my personal favorite. There was a quiet, tragic dignity to him. I expected something to be revealed about him but was not prepared for the truth.

I've always liked William Holden but my experience with Gloria Swanson was limited to her brief role in "Airport 75". I will now look for more movies by her. What an expressive face.

It was fun to try to recognize some of the old time actors that were portraying themselves.

An all around excellent movie. One I truly regret having waited this long to see. But it is definitely a case of better late than never.

Maybe I'm a freak, but I prefer the movie to the audience participation. Having my hair set on fire, rice in my ears, & toast down my dress doesn't do much for me! I'm a little crowd-o-phobic too. But I love the movie. No one will ever look as good in black lacy undies as Tim Curry!! I love the camp aspect & the music especially. Not for everyone, for sure, but definitely for those of us with classic, refined, & proper tastes- NOT! It's a hoot!
