Wednesday nights, you got a free plate or bowl with each admission.joem18bhttp://joem18b.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155853741712764167.post-64365787305259841532011-03-22T03:11:59.239-04:002011-03-22T03:11:59.239-04:00Hey!

You can see the playlist here:<br />http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=8171861DD8577ACA<br /><br />Also, a fellow by the name of Bill Doncaster, is adapting the novel, The Friends of Eddie Coyle into a stage play in the Boston area. He had a very successful reading at the Burren last November.<br /><br />Lastly, another Boston based caper, "Cogan's Trade", a novel written by Coyle author, George V. Higgins, is being adapted and is shooting in New Orleans right now..starring Brad Pitt. It was another low-level crime story with a lot of great dialogue that was featured in The Friends of Eddie Coyle. Should be out next March.<br /><br />Hope you like our tribute and keep up the great work on this blog....good stuff!J.P.

It was a lot of fun to see both movies on a big screen, though I was surprised a lot of people didn't stay for The Terminator.<br /><br />And yes a few months ago my boyfriend rented the Criterion release of The Friends of Eddie Coyle but watched it without me! I will get a copy for myself, surely.Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13471664551639091150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155853741712764167.post-51594448742297731012011-03-21T11:12:56.879-04:002011-03-21T11:12:56.879-04:00Hey Alex - Frank & Carlos were at the Somervil...Hey Alex - Frank & Carlos were at the Somerville Theatre yesterday for Terminator! I wonder if all of you went for the same showing.<br /><br />You should really check out the film. It's great and the Criterion Collection released an edition of it last year!Raquel Stecherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02687110907002450794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155853741712764167.post-7122895320912119632011-03-21T11:09:24.420-04:002011-03-21T11:09:24.420-04:00Ah I missed this when Somerville showed it and now...Ah I missed this when Somerville showed it and now I'm regretting it after reading your thoughts! It's always interesting to see films shot in Boston, and I'm not sure I've ever seen one from the 70's since I moved here. I'll have to catch it on dvd.<br /><br />Great photos, too. The Somerville Theatre is so great! I was just there yesterday for Robocop/Terminator.Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13471664551639091150noreply@blogger.com
