I get it. It's about boobs, right?

You must introduce yourself if you can make it. Would be excellent to meet you.

Advance tickets *will* be available, but that information hasn't been posted yet. I would check the Music Box website for updates. (http://www.musicboxtheatre.com) This entire weekend came together very quickly, so ticketing hasn't been set up as early as it normally would.

I don't think it's premature because its resurrection was a kind of instant cult revival— a handful of passionate people rallying around it. (And MARGARET is definitely not one of those lame cult movies by design, like ZOMBIE STRIPPERS.)

Really kind of you to say. The whole #teammargaret thing is a proud moment for the profession, I think.

@avclub-74444af26e6b2504fc0069beca54d916:disqus The headline is misleading. This is not a list of my favorite films so far in 2012, but a list of films I think my writers should see before list-making season. A few of them, like Prometheus, I don't really like.
