The Movie : "Quitting"



I don't know if this has ever been mentioned,  and I am NOT going back thru 
archives to find out, or at least NOT at this  point.

It's not anything special, but it aired or per usual, AIRS MANY  TIMES on IFC.

It's a true story, about a young Japanese actor who   ends up dropping out of 
the acting scene and he was apparently very well known  and liked. He became 
caught up in using heroin as well as a few less harmful  drugs like pot.

Anyway, he had this great love for music, and The  Beatles, or John Lennon 
specifically.

There is a line in the movie,  towards the end, when he is asked what he 
loves, he says he loves the lyrics or  maybe it was music, but I think it was 
lyrics of LENNON and  PLANT.

Nothing special like I said, but thought I'd mention it. During my  hiatus, 
I've managed to watch more damn television/satellite than I've probably  
watched in the last 5 yrs. grrrr. I hate wasting my time on earth WATCHING a  
damn 
tv screen, UNLESS of course it has our beloved Zep or related on  it.

Oh and while I'm at it. I could swear that the local Renaissance  Festival at 
the Castle in Muskogee, uses some Zep music in it's commercials. The  Battle 
of Evermore, to be exact. However it's only excerpts and probably less  than 
20-30 seconds worth.
