Indy vs. Sex and the City Showdown (With Poll)


 First of all, I want to welcome visitors from the cool blog Sergio Leone and the Infield Fly Rule.

Today, with this image of the Fox Theatre in Atlanta (which alas does not show films on a daily basis), I am asking folks whether they hope to see "Sex and the City" or the latest Indy Jones film. Both are showing at the Grandin Theatre in hometown of Roanoke, Va.

 

The Grandin is also showing "Son of Rambow" and the documentary "Young at Heart."

Down the road in Blacksburg, Va., they are showing a great independent film "The Visitor" about anti-Arab racism (perhaps someone should take Cong. Virgil Goode to see it, though Rocky Mount is pretty far from Hokie town).

The Varsity Theatre in Chapel Hill, NC, where I saw the film, is continuing to show "The Visitor," I can not recommend it enough. "Young at Heart" is also a delightful doc.

But, of course, 90 perent of the world will see either "Sex" or "Indy." In this case, I'm an undecided voter although "Sex" has the (much) better trailer.
