I want my viewers around the world to know about a movie that I believe will lift their spirts and show how perseverance can pay off ..,JERSEY BOYS. The story of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons from the Sixties.
I am a product of the sixties as Miss Hollywood and Miss California and an actress primarily from Columbia Studios in the Dean Martin Matt Helm movies. I remember so well The Four Seasons with Frankie Valli as the lead singer, what I didn't know was what a wonderful, talented and great human being he was during his rise to fame. He shows in this movie of his life, you didn't have to do drugs or dress like a bum to succeed. It is truly inspirational and the music is fabulous.
To quote a line from the movie near the end when Frankie Valli states to the audience "It was all ahead of us the music." The innocents of not knowing just how successful they would be, including the induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990.
During these horrible couple of years, it is wonderful to sit down and watch the JERSEY BOYS which my son gave me at Christmas from Amazon. What a treat it has been to sit and watch it and forget about all the problems in our country and around the world. Time out. I want to thank Clint Eastwood as producer and director for this movie, I would never have thought he would direct a movie like this, but I believe the sixties were as important to him as the rest of us now in our 70's.
PS. Just a reminder to be sure to watch the movie that includes the end before and after the credits. It is an ORIGINAL ENDING to the music in the film and the entire cast. It is such a "good feeling" and ends on such a high note and it can not be missed. May 20th.
