I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference."

Ricki and the Flash
"Ricki and the Flash" proves one again that Meryl Streep is simply the best actor alive. This time she is an aging Rocker who never made it big and in the process left her family behind. It is very typical of people who will pursue a dream no matter who they have to discard. The story deals with her entry back into her family's lives. It is Happy and sad with a good Hollywood ending. Her band is a cover band and her boyfriend is the lead guitar player (Rick Springfield)> Not too shabby.
Enjoyable movie with great music. I read where Meryl actually learned to play the guitar so that she could not just be a poser (though she doesn't play what we hear).
