    Sad how fast time flies...This is over a half century old...Almost EVERY adult in this film is either dead or else very old in this film. Still, interesting how modern or universal it resonates even today despite taking place in the ever growing distant past.

It was 1969 & I was about 11 years old, scared to death! Same for La Bianca murders. My family moved us in 1972 to a safer place, Valenci,a, CA. BEFORE society ruined it with too many people . It WAS Rural. This was about time Magic Mountain/Six Flags opened.

    Jay Sebring was the original Hollywood/Beverly Hills Hairstylist To The Stars . Frank Sinatra, Steve McQueen all had that signature style referred to “The Beverly Hills Style” . This style was common in the mid to late 1960’s before long hair & shags took over. The house where he was murdered in was rented out to Roman Polanski. The previous owner was a music producer, Terry P. Melcher . Manson was a naive kid. He didn’t know Melcher was blowing smoke up his ass so he sought after him with vengeance and sharp knives . Typical loser , Manson was .

She came to visit us recently and we drove her around to some older spots she used to go to. She had not visited since she moved. As we took her around, we felt such a silence from her and we even saw tears in her eyes. She explained to us that LA is not the same place that she grew up in and that it has become like Gotham City.
