How Do You Like Your Forsythia?

Nothing says spring like an exuberant spray of forsythia popping out in your yard. We noticed in our neighborhood that we are almost equally divided between people who just let it grow, and people who like it carefully trimmed and pruned into a box or hedge. How do you keep yours and why? Also, if you can recommend any good garden centers or yard workers, let us know in the comments. Thanks!
