I got my fix of Graf. Bridge with a Prince movie marathon inside Bing Art Books- a cozy little bookstore that honored Prince with a nice watch-party in their intimate venue. This movie sees the return of Prince's character The Kid, along with foes Morris Day and Time, with special appearances from other musicians. The film follows on from Purple Rain in that as Prince is still competing with Morris to see who is the king of night time entertainment in Minneapolis. Only now Prince and Day don't just play in bands, they each own a club, and are in direct financial competition with one another. Day hatches a plan to get rid of Prince and take over his club (which is called the Glam Slam). Prince, though, isn't too concerned; he's more interested in getting all philosophical and spends most of the film running about with his poet girlfriend Aura. I feel very trendy and cosmopolitan after watching this.
