  • Only two "dislikes"? Perhaps there's hope for the collective human heart.

  • Look at closely at Farnsworth's face...the history of 20th century America is written there. He personifies that which is best about America: quiet strength, guts, gritty determination, compassion, honesty, and self-reliance. May he rest in peace.

  • The combination of the music and his incredible performance should be enough to make anyone emotional; doesn't matter how old they are, what gender, or when they're born. What an intense film, score, and video. Thanks for uploading, and R.I.P. Richard.
