Famous Last Words

We asked you…

If you could make a movie inspired by a song, which song would it be?

 

You told us…

 

“‘Through the Rain’ by Mariah Carey, and I would make it about her. Yes, I know — Glitter. But, handled properly, I think her story would make a great movie and be an inspiration to us all.”

— Gavin Riddel, Mississauga, ON

 

“‘Here Comes That Day’ by Siouxsie. Doesn’t it just sound foreboding? Could it be a global pandemic threatening Earth? Or is it a woman seeking vengeance on a man? Who knows… I’d just want to see it.”

—Kerry Dale, Winnipeg, MB


“‘Left and Leaving’ by the Weakerthans. It’s a beautiful post-break-up song that describes how it feels to be in the town where the relationship grew, and lists the ephemera of the former love, like duct tape and matches.”

—Adele Schatschneider, Edmonton, AB


“I would make ‘Last Kiss’ by Pearl Jam. I love that song and the images of a date between two naïve kids being halted by a terrible car crash, in my mind, heartbreaking. The end would be Eddie Vedder howling.”

—Tyson Storozinski, Prince George, B.C.


“Without question ‘Hotel California’ by the Eagles. It has it all, a traveller stranded in the night, a roadside hotel, a casual encounter and then your soul is forever lost, a shocking finale reminiscent of The Twilight Zone.”

—Juan Ortiz, Winnipeg, MB
