Ironically, in several ways I am now feeling a Big Chill...

The temperature having gone from hot to freezing these past 36 hours or so; actually turned on the heat, first time in years.

The Big Chill

The Big Chill is the 1983 movie that endeared many to William Hurt and many of the legendary cast - a pitch-perfect blast of 70's/early 80's culture, including iconic music samples truly capturing the Zeitgeist of that exciting era.

Seeing the film lists now, amid obituaries and tributes, I have to say that # 2 for me, among Hurt's films, was not the more recent things but "Broadcast News".(I've long had an interest in "the media" and "news" as it glorifies cults & ratings. And I also lived in the music biz a bit.)

So... this film is etched in my soul, and made a mark on many... Friends are asking, "#BigChill music faves?" But there are so many,
stellar sounds and images within this film's vibes and characters, - "Heard it Through the Grapevine", "Can't Always Get What You Want", many others. Thin-sliced, get a taste of both film & music.
