We Feel Pretty, Oh So Pretty

Today's Word of the Day is "obsess." Appropriate for this post? Possibly.

Central Cinema, in their infinite programming wisdom, are showing West Side Story from the 17th through the 21st. Yes, we're going. We already have the soundtrack on vinyl, so we know the songs; we have the badass collector's DVD, so we know the structure of the film (and way too much trivia). So why are we so excited about seeing it? Because it's in the theater. Some people worry about the death of the movie-going experience, but there are just some movies meant to be experienced in all their theatrical splendor. West Side Story is one of them. Sure, a bunch of people are headed to David Lynch's screening of Inland Empire, but for us, gang choreography beats dreamy cinematography every time.

ps: In case anyone's thinking of buying us the official "I Feel Pretty" t-shirt, know that we wear a medium.
