Calling All L.A. Wolverines For The New Beverly's July 4th RED DAWN Screening w/ Lea Thompson!
Hey, Harry Dean Stanton! What would you like us to do this July 4th?
Done.
Though the Cold War was settled almost twenty years ago when that pussy Gorbachev cried "Glasnost!", there's still nothing more American than fantasizing about (non-nuclear) combat toe-to-toe with the Russkies. So this Saturday night, once you're properly, patriotically swollen with meat and beer and beer, you need to get your ass down to The New Beverly Cinema for their midnight screening of John Milius's RED GODDAMN DAWN.
What's that? "RED DAWN again ?" You shouldn't require extra incentive, but here goes: 1) The lovely Lea Thompson will be on hand for a pre-film Q&A (schedule permitting), 2) There may be other RED DAWN alumni in attendance as well, and 3) If that ain't good enough for ya, leave.
See you there.
