Just watched it yesterday. I have a new found respect for Mr. Clash & don't find that little red Muppet quite as annoying as I used to.

I had a big, goofy smile on my face the whole time I was watching... now THAT'S a man who is passionate about his job. Smile

A perfect picture of pursuing a dream. He also had several key people in his life who encouraged him along the way. It's a feel good story on so many points.

That was so wonderful! Wish I could see the entire film (just put a couple of places near me in the "Demand It" section)

Thanks for posting the link to the trailer, Lisa - loved it! I've heard so many good things about the movie but never took the time till now to check it out.

May just have to find time to watch the whole movie sometime soon.
