There's nothing like watching a movie filmed in your home town to bring back memories of people, places and things.

Tonight, we're watching 'Saved the Last Dance', which Dave has never seen before. It was filmed in Chicago, and the club scenes were filmed at Crobar, a place that we went to many a time. Coincidentally, we were going to go there one night but discovered it was closed, and later found out they were filming the movie there.

Anyway, it's the club scene, and I reminded Dave that the movie was filmed in Crobar. We're doing a lot of comparisons, like how Crobar is usually way more packed, and that it's awfully bright for a club. There's one part where Faith Evans' 'Love Like This' comes on, and it just makes me want to dance. And the reaction that the song gets on screen is the same reaction it would get in a club. But not Crobar - I don't think they'd ever play it in Crobar! But it reminds me a lot of when we used to be club kids. Then they follow the main characters around the bar area. Dave exclaims, 'Hey! I threw up there! That's where I threw up!'

Oh yes, sweet memories indeed.
