Alright, lad – what else is playing? I’m coming home next week on a short furlough before I return to Afghanistan at the end of the month. I heard a couple of noirs are playing at the Roxie. Hopefully The Castro got some good flicks next week – it’s almost a running joke that everytime I come home on a short leave, they’re either closed for renovation or playing the Little Mermaid Sing-A-Long for the whole bleeding week!
Well, there’s always the Landmark chain, if they’re still open…
See Still Walking! It’s terrific!
Will try to catch A Woman in Berlin, The September Issue, or maybe White on Rice. Or I might just wind up only watching those Columbia noirs at the Roxie.
is anyone going to watch Bright Star at the Metreon tomorrow?
is anyone going to watch Bright Star at the Metreon tomorrow?
@Kaifu: is A Woman in Berlin out already?
@Nessa: Yes, at the Presidio and the Elmwood in Berkeley.
Should I go and see Flame and Citron?
Yes.
I just watched It Might Get Loud at the Lumiere – good music doc
Glad to see that you liked Flame and Citron too.
