Graffiti Bridge

 

Graffiti Bridge 1990

  • Director: Prince
    • Seen by this director: Under the Cherry Moon
  • Based on the book: No
  • Cast: Prince, Morris Day, Ingrid Chavez
  • Personal “oh yeah him/her” reaction, i.e. have seen this actor in:
    • Prince – Purple Rain, Under the Cherry Moon
    • Morris Day – Purple Rain
  • Why? Prince
  • Seen: 21 April 2024 

       Prince was gorgeous, there’s no question about that, and he was a musical genius. I saw him in concert in Stockholm once upon a time. Very cool.

       According to some reports (I just read Sinead O’Connor’s Remembering), he wasn’t such a cool person.

       This film? Some kind of rivalry between greedy commercial club owner Morris Day (Day) and spiritual godly club owner Kid (Prince).  Non-story, horrible script, horrible acting.

       Prince, you may be not always be cool but you’re usually better than this. You should have stopped with Purple Rain or even Under the Cherry Moon, which I actually liked, unlike almost everybody else.

       Because he really is a cutie and there are snippets of good music:
