Play anything this movie brings to mind

I worked at a group home 15+ years ago and a client there watched this movie many times a day...everyday. Which means all us staff watched it many times a day...everyday. I can't bring myself to watch it ever again. It would take a minute or 2, but I probably could recite the whole movie once it gets going.

I remember when I was young wondering how many cop cars they wrecked in the filming of this movie
The answer is 60, and apparently they had a body shop do repairs as needed.

I just wanted to spin some Aretha tonight...

Evelle: [about the balloons he just bought] These blow up into funny shapes at all?
Grocer: Well no... unless round is funny.


KOL seemed to get progressively lamer as their career deepened, but this was a worthy earworm...



Remember when you could grab this 7LP box set for like $12 a few years ago?

Solo-Album from the Buffallo Tom Singer/guitarist that has a cover of My funny Valentine, so "funny" is taken care of and a song called Red Balloon to acknowledge the ballon quote from the movie. And it´s a great record

My dad always pointed out that in one of the police chases they drive by Nelson Funeral Home, and that is where he worked at for his apprenticeship while getting his Mortuary Science degree in the mid 70's before I was born. It's actually out in the suburbs - Park Ridge, IL.

It is mentioned in the web site below...


My brother lived there for some years and knows the city pretty well, but I've never lived there and don't know the city at all.

Jens Lekman "Night Falls Over Kortedala"
(2007 Secretly Canadian)
These are clever and funny lyrics throughout. And since the record is round, round is funny in this case.
