Truthful words, some true words man. Totally made my day!

Yesterday 10-12-2009 I went to see the film “The posters came from the walls”.
This is the first time this movie is shown in Argentina (and I was there!!)
It was really good. Depeche Mode is never shown in the footage. The movie is filmed in standard definition, not even 3ccd maybe because it had footage of such a long time ago. This is a DM fans film and shows their feelings for the band and the way they were influenced by it in their lives. There are often historical and cultural events (from different countries) attached to these stories.
The nice and interesting thing is to see how many people share my (our) view of what DM means to us. Depeche Mode isn’t just good music. It’s a way of feeling life. Lyrics talk about the most intimate and spiritual aspects of ones life and how this teaching lead us to the persons we’ve become. We learned to see life, feel life, and know us to the core thanks to the music of this amazing band.

…at the end no one applauded though… and as I was there alone I didn’t want to be the only one doing so!

I got really emotional specially in the parts when they showed fragments of the live concerts. I just wanted to stand up, sing and jump!

DON’T MISS IT!

Enjoy!
