    I miss it so much! I love the ending, it gives me a feeling in the pit of my stomach!

    Steve Bach's music is great, especially in the last segment. Truly electro-acoustic.

  • Great video. I think the same person made a video called "SK8 OUT". Has anyone heard of it? I'd love find a good version of it; mine is poor quality.

    Would like to get permission to use some footage for a documentary on the Venice rollerskating phenomenon which began in 1976. Would appreciate if someone could put me in touch with the film maker.

    Do a side by side of a still image at 1:52, versus the photo for Val Kilmer's Wikipedia entry. He grew up in the area, and would have been around 20 at the time.
