 7/17/13  "PREMIERE" OF RISKY BUSINESS,starring TOM CRUISE, REBECCA de MORNAY, & JOE PANTOLIANO ...during the summer they show various historic movies here at what they call "Oscars Outdoors" here in hollywood, sponsored by the Academy Awards, & tonight it's "Risky Business" from 1983...so why do I call it the "premiere"? Because before the movie began, they had various members of the cast & crew (not including Tom Cruise) up front & the producer or director said he considers this the "premiere" because #1 they never actually had a premiere at the time the movie was released in 1983, & #2 they are showing the version with a different ending..the ending the producers wanted to include in the original version but the studio didn't. & the studio won.

In 1983 I was in 10th grade & so this was a "formative" film for me...at that age movies have such a long-lasting memorable effect & the actors all seem so much more "larger than life." Tom Cruise was just starting out as an actor. I saw him at the Jerry Bruckheimer hollywood star ceremony a few weeks ago, & one thing that struck me was how short he is...much shorter than I imagined. IT was fun to see some of the cast & crew before they showed the movie,...unfortunately I had to leave early, but still a good experience.

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.” ― 

Thomas Jefferson, The Declaration of Independence

“I pray ... also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know ... His incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of His mighty strength, which He exerted in Christ when He raised Him from the dead... “Ephesians 1:17-20

“Learn to do right! Seek justice, encourage the oppressed. Defend the cause of the fatherless, plead the case of the widow.”Isaiah 1:17

“...[are you] in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God -- that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption. Therefore, as it is written: "Let Him who boasts boast in the Lord."

1 Corinthians 1:30-31
