"A good movie can take you out of your dull funk
and the hopelessness that so often goes with slipping into a theater ..."
-- Pauline Kael, For Keeps: 30 Years at the Movies
Give them pleasure.
The same pleasure they have
when they wake up from a nightmare."
-- Alfred Hitchcock
If one movie is a good thing, two movies is one day is an even better thing.
And two movies wrapped around dinner at Chipotle is like a double-wrapped good thing burrito.
New fangled movie theaters don't do old fashioned double features anymore. So we had to create our own from the multiple offerings at our local cineplex.
We found two movies spaced just far enough apart to allow for a quick dinner in between films.
It felt super indulgent and extravagant, because it was. We didn't have to choose which movie we wanted to see. We just saw them both.
I was excited about it all week. It was our way of celebrating the end of Leo's final exams, and the perfect start to a long weekend.
It was also the perfect excuse to create this pretend movie poster for a movie that doesn't exist, but which I hope someone will make some day so that I can go see it.
Twice.
Cuz I bet it's really good.
