A few hours ago, huh?

You've seen it!

Twice!

i was actually at a friends house drinking when i noticed it. i put it on for a while but no one including myself was paying any attention at all

The best/most prophetic line in the whole movie is at the very beginning when those guys are running from Prince's club saying "Let's get outta here. That thing's gonna blow!" You can say that again buddy.

Oh, boo. *waves at you dismissively*

Graffiti Bridge isn't The English Patient, but it has its moments that, in spite of the bad ones, make it worth watching at least once.

I love the performances of "Elephants and Flowers", and "Tick Tick Bang", and both Prince and Ingrid Chavez were arguably at their hottest during this period. There's a sweetness to the love story between the Kid and Aura too that's nice to witness.

It's still a rip-off even if free, because I'd have to spend time watching it...can't get that time back either....

Free on demand eh? I didn't think there was a demand to see Graffiti Bridge.

no-one is going to watch it for free. i wouldn't watch it if i got my $77 back!

what kind of incentive is that for people to watch it?

I was very lucky around the GB time and won a contest on the radio and the grand prize was a trip to the premier of GB in NYC. I was very excited and got a chance to greet the little man and shake his hand as well as meet a few other celebrities but I also had to call into the radio station and do an on air review of the movie. When the DJ asked me how the movie was I said, "Ah, well the music was good". I couldn't bring myself to dog our little friend but couldn't bring myself to lie on the radio either. At the end of the movie, like most of us, I thought what in the hell was that?

Something tells me prince was thinking the same thing. apparently at the premiere he walked out of the movie halfway through and then didn't even bother to show up at his own after party! seems even he was embarrassed by it!

That's so funny! Walking away from your own movie! Damn

You see this what happens when they take down megaupload...this is peoples punishment.

I think when they catch people with piracy the punishment should be a 100hrs of watching GB back to back...now if they haven't gauge their own eyes out by the end of it, they sure will never ever download ever again.

with GB being on tv and subsequently on their 'on demand' system, and UTCM on netflix... maybe prince is trying to prepare us for a new movie?

Its funny you say that because you are correct as I got up to go to the bathroom twice and the first time he was still in his seat but the second time he was gone. Then at the after party, everyone was there includibng all the attended celebreties and others from the the movie but Prince was a no show. I must say it was hugely dissapointing that he did not make an appearance at his own party but you are probably right it was due to the product we had all just witnessed

i'm sorry for prince but this is one of the worst film i have ever seen

Graffiti Bridge is on Netflix streaming as well. On a side note, the 1980 SNL episode with Prince performing Party Up is on Netflix streaming as well, but sadly it's edited down to 39 minutes with the entire perfromance missing. You can see the band without Prince during the closing credits though.

his performance during the steve martin show from a few years back is edited down too on there

4 some reason, I think Prince sounds like George Michael during "Elephants and Flowers."
