    I was brought up in the 60's and this movie was so off base when it came to the 60's. You just see some of the events that happened in the 60's and the songs of the Beatles. Is this suppose to mark the best movie someone has ever seen? I saw the Beatles, I was there when the Detroit Riots happened I was there when they were protesting the Vietnam War. Let me tell you no one was getting up and singing a Beatle song. They were singing songs like: "We shall over come, we shall over come. It was a generation that saw injustice and they wanted to do something about it. It was Bob Dylan's songs that were the most powerful. The first 20mintutes in the movie I wanted to walk out. I stayed just to see if it was going to get better but it did not. I was never so happy to have a bathroom break and not feeling compelled to hurry back. When I came back they were still singing the same song. One of the worst musicals I have seen.

    You are so right, I was there and I don't remember people singing Beatle songs, come to think of it, leather clad people weren't doing choreographed dances in the street during the 50s. I've also asked a few people and nobody remembers the hills being alive with the sound of music in the 40s. DON'T go see Sweeney Todd, I hear he sings in English... like that happened!! P. S. Do you think House should still be practicing medicine?
