I need to figure out if there's a way for me to advance-book the free student tix I get cause it's such a huge huge resource of which I've almost utterly failed to take advantage.

Darlings, I'll believe that when I can stream all those recently restored Fox Films titles. One at AFI and two at Capitolfest does not make the grade.

The Quad is too loud, says a kvetch who lives upstairs. Eviction in the works?

In response, the indie theater stopped using its subwoofers and turned down the default volume of its flicks to a “Level 4” out of 10

this may explain why viewings there are often mildly derailed by the honking chatter of people ascending the staircase to the apartments above

Keir Dullea followed 2001 by starring in the awful De Sade. In imdb rating terms that's going from an 8.3 to a 3.4

I think I've seen 22 of those Rated X's

― Josefa, Tuesday, 18 December 2018 15:20 (seven years ago)

Of course most of those X films don't deserve the rating

― Josefa, Tuesday, 18 December 2018 15:24 (seven years ago)

yes. many of them = not hot

The Servant predates the MPAA by at least 5 years. Are you thinking of a different Dirk Bogarde vehicle?

― a Mets fan who gave up on everything in the mid '80s (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 18 December 2018 15:30 (seven years ago)

It was X-certificate, sorry, different thing
