PS, 80's. Nice to meet in a nonpolitical forum.

PPS. Does the movie "Two A Penny" ring any bells?

Hi Saint!

Good grief, I love that movie. The song "Questions" is so haunting...and Cliff was great-he gave a powerful performance! I love it when he sneaks on stage with Billy Graham.

Saw it when I was a kid--when I thought British accents were sexy . I don't remember the music from it. I remember it as being a nice little film which I liked.
