I would die for you

This movie makes me miss Prince even more. This movie was groundbreaking in 1984 where I had to tape on the late Saturday night movie after the news. Even after almost forty years, the film was groundbreaking for a lot of reasons. Prince proved to be quite an actor as the kid. The cast and crew did a terrific job.

The cast was pretty much playing themselves. First Avenue in Minneapolis is a landmark music venue with historic performances over five decades and going strong. The music was terrific even the best of Prince's career. His character was very much like himself in the movie. Prince always evaded displaying his true self aside from the concert stage.

The supporting cast of characters like Morris, Billy, Appolonia, Lisa and Wendy added to the film. The music was first rate. I still miss Prince very much.
