I missed out on Prince's first film for many reasons. The number one reason being that I listened to rock-n-roll. This Prince guy, he played dancey smoochy songs that girls liked. The number two reason was, I was seven when this movie was released. There was no way in hell my parents were letting me watch this. Twenty-two years later, I've learned that dancey smoochy stuff that girls like can be good, and that my parents were totally right to keep me away from this movie.
