Grand Canyon (Movie)

Grand Canyon was on one of the movie channels last night. I guess it’s been almost 10 years since I’ve last seen it. Definitely one of my top 10 movies. Great cast, great script, perfectly understated performances, awesome soundtrack. The right combination of drama and humor.

Didn’t get the attention of the public when it came out in 1991. It’s a movie that makes you think and reflect. I guess that’s why it didn’t make a big splash at the box office.

“This is difficult stuff. Making a left turn in L.A. is one of the harder things you'll learn in life.”

Thanks for the reminder. This was sort of his follow up to "The Big Chill" wasn't it?

Just took Drew a week ago to a big classic car show at Sully Plantation. (Photo of him behind a wheel will come :)
Chuck said look at those wings or fins. Drew said, "Spoilers."
Granddad may lose his tenuous spot as family know-it-all.
