Roller Skates and Glowing People:

Xanadu was a blast. The heckling was relentless.

I just saw this for the first time a couple weeks ago. It is, without a doubt, the greatest film that Western cinema has ever produced. I particularly liked the drug-induced animation sequence (the bird wore leg-warmers!).

Priceless.

We just "screened" The Ladykillers (1955) on Saturday night for our group. No heckling, just laughing. It's being remade by the Coen brothers, should be interesting...

The bird wore legwarmers? I thought those were marshmallows.

Looked like Marshmellows to me too. But both are hysterical.

I'm so sorry I missed the movie and the heckling opportunity. Sleep, however, prevailed, and next month, I'll be better prepared.
