My parents were kind of over protective people. Me and my sister had to play in the backyard all the time. They bought us bikes for Christmas but wouldn't let us ride in the street we had to ride in the backyard. Another Christmas my dad got me a basketball hoop and put it in the middle of the lawn! You can't dribble on grass.
I saw Tequila Sunrise as a romantic picture with complex bigger than life characters.
But my humble opinion is I'm not quite sure where I stand on the legalization of drugs - though if tequila is legal pot should probably be legal.
There were years when I was a beer and tequila guy then I got real fat. And then I found that you could actually go on a diet and drink scotch. Then I got hooked on scotch and if you get hooked on scotch then everything else just tastes wrong.
