Private Screening

Last Christmas we bought ourselves some gift certificates for our local theatre, because they were offering a great discount. But we haven’t been to the movies much this year. So we still had a few dollars left and decided to just go.

We picked Jack Mimoun and the Secrets of Val Verde, a holdover from the recent French film festival. One review described it as “Indiana Jones meets Monty Python”. In fact, it wasn’t as sophisticated or subversive as Monty Python, so maybe “Indiana Jones meets Mr. Bean”?

Anyway, the movie was good for a laugh. But the best part was having the whole room to ourselves… it felt very luxurious!
