Before judging Romeo and Juliet to be the greatest tear inducing love story put on film, try getting a copy of Buster and Billie to watch. Meanwhile, listen to Billie’s Theme by Hoyt Axton. ↓
I don’t know if the song has the same impact as it would if the movie was seen first. It shouldn’t matter because the story is so emotionally powerful that once you’ve experienced it, the music will always stir your soul. Here are clips from the movie. ↓
The music is dramatically different from Billie’s Theme. However, it still goes well with the images!
Joan Goodfellow is such an amazing actress in this film! [She is the blonde with curly hair.] Jan-Michael Vincent isn’t bad to look at either! If you want to read a brief summary of the plot first, don’t let it spoil your decision to see this 1974 masterpiece. I’m sure there are some who don’t fully appreciate love stories like this one, but those who do will be impressed!
