"Wait till the midnite hour....just you and I ...."
------
"Dope (the movie) came about because the very idea was simply "in the air." The times were so full of the awareness that something was really going on, that Sheldon and I, simply by being in the right place at the right time, and because of our unique personal journey, by being the "right people" as it were, that is, because of all that we'd done before that moment, were simply able to tap into and express all those particular fertile juicy feelings which were the essence of that time and place. For, despite the large emphasis on heroin, or perhaps alongside that "down" state, there is an underlying "up" note. At the end of Dope, remember, we see Caroline dancing alone in front of a mirror to Midnight Hour, complete, perfect, "owning" herself, and Dutch Bobby's voice saying "I don't know how it will end; it goes on forever…"
