In my reply above I referred to a movie popular in the mid-late sixties (I Am Curious Yellow), that most of my new and younger Heart friends have probably never heard of.
Please excuse my geezerhood. In it's time it was considered extremely controversial, due to nudity and depictions of sex. Personally, I don't remember seeing it, (the sixties you know, ). Most likely not, I was busy living it.  Here's a description from wikipedia for anyone interested. |
