Stoned Love

I owe reader FDot a massive debt of gratitude for bringing this news to my attention: The wonderful IFC Center here in NYC, a theater upon which my praises have been heaped in the past, is once again proving its mettle, this time bringing unto our fine city something I've been clamoring for for months.

Gregg Araki's Smiley Face

Starring Anna Faris, John Krasinski and Danny Masterson

New Screwball Stoner Comedy

From the Director of Mysterious Skin

Opens Wednesday, December 26 at IFC Center

SMILEY FACE, Gregg Araki's new slapstick stoner farce, opens Wednesday, December 26 at IFC Center for a two-week engagement.

Yay! I love this city. And I love this theater. And I love Anna Faris and Gregg Araki. And I love all of you; I love you most of all!

Okay, I'm finished.

I wish Buffalo-area theatres weren't holes of the devoid. :(

It will be on DVD come January, JD, so your wait isn't that long. And hey, Buffalo has... um, the Bills. And you're close to Niagara Falls, that's like a Wonder of the World and all.

Joe Reid said...

Watch it there, smugly. The Bills are one game out of the playoffs. Woo!

J.D., I feel you. Drove me crazy.

Hey, I'm from Rochester; I'm allowed to make fun of Upstate NY.

Joe Reid said...

Oh, you highfalutin' Rochesterians. Think yer better than the rest of us. Hee.

Yes, the Falls are. Not the city.

There's, like, a tourist zone that's barely a square mile that encompasses the falls, the casino, and some trees, and it's like they can't cross that perimeter. Not that it's a bad thing. I would stay in that area, because I'd want "good memories".

GO BILLS!!!!!

Ah memories. My friends and I in college would drive to Niagara Falls like every other weekend - since we could drink in Canada - and rent a hotel room in the Green Zone of which you speak and get wasted. I always want to go back when I get back home but never have the time.
