What a shame that (as of 28 March 2008) this IMDb entry for Siempre En Domingo is so neglected, with this being the first comment posted for it. Siempre En Domingo actually ran from 1969 to 1998 hosted by the genial Raul Velasco. The show aired in Mexico on Televisa, in Central and South America, in the US (on channel 41 in New York for example where it was watched mainly by Hispanics but also Italians and others who enjoyed the variety of musical artists) and other international markets. Many, many artists had their careers started or boosted by this show over the years and Raul Velasco became a national treasure in his native Mexico as well as in most of Latin America. So much to say about this show, but I'll leave that to the rest of you who grew up with Siempre En Domingo. I know I'm not the only one...

I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who enjoys this film. I discovered Starstruck in the 1990s and look for it whenever it runs on cable. It is meant to be airy, free, fun, and irreverent. The spirit of youth is well presented here by all actors, young and old. Jo Kennedy is sexy. After my first viewing of her I had a crush on her that continues to this day. She is fun to watch, as are Ross O'Donovan as her cousin Angus, the guitarist with the glasses that dances, Pat Evison as Nana - everyone, really. The music is, of course, integral to the experience. This movie just has a way of making me smile as I watch it.
