- I heard somewhere that the fields were in Washington.

-
- I'm sorry to hear the criticisms people have posted of this show. I
- was very pleased with it. The 'battle' did get a little drawn out I
- admit...but I found the rest of the movie very captivating. I have
- the soundtrack, and spotted Peter Gabriel's name buried in its credits.
- Unlike many soundtracks, this one doesn't omit songs that were so
- great in the movie (a la Pump Up the Volume!).
-
- I suspect that the same people who whined about Williams being so
- restrained by his character in this movie would also whine about
- his character being another typical Robin Williams character if
- he *did* go all out. (did that make sense? :)
-
- When I go to a movie, I just wrap myself up in the story...I don't
- take an imaginary notepad so I can remember what I *didn't* like.
- Then again, for the most part I have been able to avoid movies I
- wouldn't like, because I've rarely been disappointed with my
- open-minded approach.
