One Meatball

"Are you ready for the summer? 

"Are you ready for the good times... "

You are one click away from the sweetest, most profitable movie Canada has ever made.

Free.

Bill Murray rocks a mullet in Meatballs, the 1979 summer camp flick that first put Bill and the late Ivan Reitman on the star track.

Two years later, the pair did Stripes. A half dozen comedy collabs later,  Ghostbusters.

If there is a perfect way to erase politics, poxes and lockdowns from your brain bank, this is it.

Come to Camp NorthStar. Be Tripper, Murray's irresistible head councilor. Don't be the sad kid. 

Did I tell you I once came in third in a pajama race? You swim to the float and back in your pajamas. Alas, my mom had packed my Tom Corbett Space Cadet p.j's. Made of flannel.

Damn. I coulda been a contendah.

Meatballs made $43 million, before DVDs, streaming and the web.

And now it's free.
