Up for Steve McQueen Awesomeness on 4/15? 8 Months, 1 Week ago
|
|
|
Just found out that The Castro Theatre in San Francisco is showing the two best McQueen movies, The Magnificent Seven and The Great Escape, at a double feature on Tax Day (4/15). I live only several hops, skips, and jumps away but I thought I'd extend an offer to the board too see if anyone wants to come and get a beer or two and wax philosophical about coolness in cinema.
Any takers?
On any note, my unofficial Top Five coolest movie characters go as follows:
1. Capt Virgil Hilts "The Cooler King" - McQueen in The Great Escape
2. Luke - Paul Newman in Cool Hand Luke
3. Inspector "Tequila" Yuen - Chow Yun Fat in Hard Boiled
4. Jack Carter - Michael Caine in Get Carter
5. Jef Costello - Alain Delon in Le Samourai

I have never seen a McQueen flick. What's up with all these non-popular cultural interests? Wait, this is what san franciscans do, isn't it? I've heard about this.
how much do the tickets cost?

Tickets are nine whopping dollars, but what better way to spend 1.2 percent of your monthly AmeriCorps salary than to see Steve McQueen and Yul Brenner gun down fools? Anywho, two dollar PBR and free hotdogs at the local dive might make up for it.
Anyone game?
