RUNNING ON EMPTY: I have always liked this little film and used to watch it a lot. I had the VHS tape and everything. It is not shown on cable very much anymore. It's the story of a family that have to move often because the FBI is after the parents because of a protest bombing of a building that was supposed to be empty, but a janitor or some was killed. The oldest son is in high school and has a friendship with a girl and he is gifted in piano and wants to go to Julliard. Anyway a good story, good acting and gives pause for thoughts and family relationships.
I am suprised that so few of you have not seen it. I believe if you had you would have guessed from the clues I gave about River Phoenix dying young and the James Taylor song that had a great part in the film. Go out and rent the movie and give it a look. Very worth seeing.
Contrats to DAN. He beat out Emily by 35 minutes on the 9 with his true guess. Sorry Ems, you just seem to be stuck in 2nd place these days. You're first in my heart though.

Dang! I love this movie and have watched it several times. Couldn't put it together with the quotes or the musical clues, however. Martha Plimpton plays the girlfriend. I love her and is in my favorite new show. It's called 'Raising Hope'. It's on Fox on Tuesday nights. Watch it, people! It is so funny.
ARG!! 35 minutes???
