Ever wonder how your life got so far off track from how you imagined? Then you absolutely must check out “The Big Chill” before you die. It’s the perfect encapsulation of the quarter-life crisis (third-life crisis?) among a group of college friends. Subscribe – http://goo.gl/9AGRm

The film portrays a group that came of age as idealistic college students in the 60s (and it has the soundtrack to prove it!), but we (like Lena Dunham) are pretty sure than whatever generation you’re in, you’ll find their experiences relate-able. Plus, it stars much younger versions of some still major stars, like Glenn Close, Kevin Kline, Jeff Goldblum, William Hurt, and Tom Berenger.

Come for the cast and the soundtrack, stay for the all-too-familiar sense of life getting away from you. Regardless. Watch The Big Chill before you die.
