Many baby boomers can relate to the characters is this film.  Have our lives passed us by?  Have we become too complacent and ready to accept what there is rather than what there can be?  Have we given up our ideals?

The music added so much to this film.  The soundtrack of mostly recordings from the late sixties/early seventies evokes emotions for me and many other baby boomers (the soundtrack was a best seller).  

This is one the films that I can watch over and over again, and still find something I missed in previous viewings.  Just recently, I ran across the film airing on a Sunday afternoon and sat down to watch it all over again.  It's full of great performances.
