My, you're such a beautiful girl
Mother Earth needs more like you
you should go out now and see the world"
~Neil Young's "Bringin' Down Dinner"

Neil Young writes the following about "Bringin' Down Dinner" on "RETURN TO GREENDALE" | NYA: "It was a sad day at the Double E, near Greendale. Grandma and Grandpa could never be together again."
The song "Bringin' Down Dinner" recounts the Green Family saga, with Grandpa's daughter Edith arriving with food, unaware of his death. "What's Grandpa doing on TV?" she asks over a funereal organ. "I've got his dinner in the car."
Directed by L.A. Johnson and Bernard Shakey, RETURN TO GREENDALE is performed live in Toronto with full cast. A premiere screening of the film RETURN TO GREENDALE by Neil Young & Crazy Horse was held at Balboa Theater in San Francisco, CA on Jan 28, 2020, where much of the cast and crew attended, as we reported. Each Monday features a chapter from Greendale on NYA.

Neil Young writes on "RETURN TO GREENDALE" | NYA:
Greendale, the story of Sun Green coming of age in the world, and seeing all of the threats against the Earth, is one of my favorite films in the Shakey Pictures library. Sun Green was played by one of my daughter Amber’s friends, Sara White. I discovered her at a school play we went to see when Amber was in high school.
Larry Johnson and I shot Greendale on super 8 film cameras. I wlll never forget it. Getting up before dawn and heading to nearby Half Moon Bay from my ranch everyday, driving in Grandpa’s big white eldorado with a cup of coffee, I would meet Larry and we would plan and shoot the day. So many of my friends are in Greendale; Gary Burden as the Captain, Eric Johnson as the Devil, Mazzeo as Earl Green, Sun Green’s dad. Pegi Young as her mom Edith. Larry Johnson was the cop. Erik Markegard was Earth Brown. Erik was the son of my foreman at the ranch, Larry Markegard. Karin Markegard, Erik’s mother, played a part as well.
These folks were all my friends. I will never forget Greendale, one of the biggest highlights of my filming life.
