At the end of the movie


when they are saying what happens to all the characters: why did they have to kill Tammy off? That's so sad.

I just need some love so turn out the lights and I'll be left in the dark again.

Tammy wasn't the "together forever" type with Michael or anyone else. I thought the ending was pretty true to character.

Oh, you can't do that with a ping pong ball!!

The Tammy character was based precisely upon Genie the Tailor, a rock music custom clothing designer identical to the character in every way. She was killed in a van crash with members of Fairport Convention in England. Hence the character's demise.

I watched the movie until a thunder storm knocked the sattelite off as they began telling what happened to the characters. Would someone please tell me what happened to them.

Thanks

Peace

I didn't get to see the first half of the movie... I only get to watch in the scene where Tammy asked Micheal? Is that his name? All I know is that it starts with a M... anyways why he doesn't work in color and all those colorblind stuff.

Anyways, in the end, while Zach found this bus boy (the guy that he was earlier playing the guitar with... ech, just he's playing his guitar in the balcony somewhat searching for another guitarist blah blah blah) they played and then, some 'what happened' to them now comes on the screen.

On Tammy & M's turn, if my photographic memory does work... it says

Tammy and Micheal were together for two years.

-pause-

then...

Tammy then died in a car accident.



Well... that's all I could remember... it's not much -shrugs- sorry.

I know its been a long time but I just watched the movie many characters were based on actual people of that era. Here is some info on Jeannie.

Jeannie Franklyn (the character Tammy )
