Fifty Shades of Wine

“There is not enough wine for this movie,” I say to my friend, nestled into an exceptionally comfy lounge chair next to me at a luxury theater in Laguna Niguel called Cinepolis. We’ve already sampled EL James’ 50 Shades of Grey red wine, which is $15 a glass or $55 a bottle and not worth it,…

Casablanca, a facebook screening

Austin: Live Center Stage

I dare you to show me a woman who doesn’t secretly love Center Stage. The movie brings out the inner ballerina in all of us, simultaneously showing the challenges and beauty behind ballet. Plus romance. And rule-breaking. Without Black Swan creepiness and sans toenail shots. Hell, I even love Center Stage 2: Turn It Up,…

Austin: Ticket Giveaway to Falling Skies Premiere!

My TV style is more Gossip Girl than Heroes, more nighttime soap than alien invasion—although I did love X Files back in the day, even though I had to leave the room for the creepy opener music or else I’d have nightmares. However, TNT is introducing a new alien invasion show called FALLING SKIES, where In the devastating…

Austin: Giveaway! Tix to Advance Screening of Forks Over Knives

“The answer is so simple it’s criminal: people starting to take responsibility for their health.” This trailer is for FORKS OVER KNIVES, a film examining the profound claim that most, if not all, of the degenerative diseases that afflict us can be controlled, or even reversed, by rejecting our present menu of animal-based and processed foods*. *You know that…

Austin: Sailor Jerry’s and Hori Smoku

There’s a girl, who I’ve never met, who sent me the info on this event. She grew up in CO and TX, where I now split time, and get this–she grew up in the tiny town of Sugar Land, outside of Houston, where I was actually born! It’s crazy. And, it’s crazy how much synchronicity…
