Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Butterflies are Free (1972)

Way too long to have to endure Goldie's amateurish acting and unbelievable flightiness. The movie doesn't even merit viewing until Eileen Heckart arrives (at a bit past the halfway point). She livens things up a bit, but not enough. Albert is good enough that I checked to make sure that he isn't actually blind, but that doesn't make the draggy story worth watching.

I wish I could get that damn "Butterflies Are Free" song out of my head!
