Thanks! I just wish I could have found a place in it for Steiner's murder suicide scene. That really got to me. It's also interesting that Marcello reacted to it by not changing his ways, but...

Good review. I didn't have a problem with how much enthusiasm the audiences had for the band. Since they're a local band, much of that enthusiasm is prideful, especially since the movie takes place...
