having a mild weekend
what sort of pop star is dave clark?
he doesn't smile. he doesn't particularly like girls. he doesn't smoke, drink, carry pot or even heroin! attractive older women scare him a bit. he does like to look at himself in the mirror. and he does like to go skin diving. in london. in winter.
the rest of the band seems pretty spunky, but they don't get to do anything as individuals and it's hard to hear what they're saying most of the time.
what an odd little movie this is. it seems to be a weird hybrid halfway between a hard days' night (which came before) and help! (which came after).
i laughed a few times, though i'm not sure that all of those situations were meant to be funny.
i do wish they'd had more than the three or so dc5 tunes they managed to work in (repeatedly).
