It is with a sad yet joyous heart that both Joseph and I invite you to one final grand movie night in our cinema haven. As most of you are already aware, Joseph and I will be moving to Los Angeles shortly after July 4th, and we hope that you are able to stop by and celebrate with us on Saturday, June 25th, 2011. We understand that this is Pride weekend and some of you may have other engagements, but we hope you can drop in for one or both films, or just to say hello. We would like to attempt to walk down the street to the 19 bar for libations and commiserations after our cinematic exploits. Therefore, we would like to begin early on this final movie night by starting at 4:oo PM. Parking may be difficult, so we would be willing to come pick you up at your car if it is necessary to park an astronomical distance from the premises.
In celebration of our departure, we would like to screen the immortal, iconic screen debuts of our favorite leading ladies: Janet Jackson in Poetic Justice (1993) and Sigourney Weaver in Alien (1979). We will be providing Papa Murphy's pizza and some hard liquors for your enjoyment, as well as a dessert or two. If you have received this invitation, we sincerely hope to see you on this last night of cinematic dissemination so we can enjoy some drinks, some time together, and, of course, Janet and Siggy.
We hope that we can remain in contact (in more ways than checking facebook updates) and stay abreast of each other's lives. While it has been a long term goal at last realized for us to move to California, we will miss you all very much. And we hope that you come visit us!
And when we finally say goodbye, I hope it feels a lot like this clip from Ghost, but without the sucking face.
In the words of darling Emily Dickinson, "Parting is all we know of heaven and all we need to know of hell."
