I trace the lines I find upon me / Find my way to Serramonte

Here's two things I didn't expect about "Colma: The Musical": that I would be able to talk anyone into going with me, and that it would be good.  But Jenny, Harold and I saw it last night, and it was good -- and not just in a novelty way, either.  It was amateurish, but not as much as you'd think, and was wittier and more heartfelt than a lot of Hollywood movies.

It's the tale of 3 Colma teenagers the summer after they graduate from high school, in the shadow (but really in the fog) of the big city.  Much of the action takes place in the cemeteries, in the BART station, and of course, in the mall.  After it was over, Harold said "That movie really makes me want to go to Target."

interesting note about colma: the musical. one of the characters is based on a SF Mime Troupe actor. The director/writer/composer is his best friend.

I want to see it.
