this movie have a great soundtrack . the title song be pretty but the others use be outstanding . california and which we hear whenever the hero go after his old flame and should be adopt by the state . our hero be a top jingle writer for ad campaign in new york with a desire to move up to movie scoring . this take him to california and which be where the college sweetheart who walk out on him now live . he want to relive the past with a happy end . this movie will resonate with anyone who have old memory . there be especially nice touch here about male friendship and intercommitment . james brooks seem to have do everything represent story and music and directing and lead role and and it do seem very personal . but this movie have a number of interesting element in it . some bit about work with advertiser to produce a musical spot be marvelous . jimmy breslin have an interesting side role . there be a lot of warmth to this movie and and do not forget the wonderful music .
