Going back to the movies feels good when you bring someone along with you. Don’t have to make sense sitting in the seat with a big screen I thought. Just watching the movie 🍿 stay off cell phone and no talking right? Harder than you think.
The popcorn smells good. The soda pop to wash it down. The time to go and risk everything for a movie 🎥 surprisingly is not an easy way to get out of the house. You have to get good at it like everything else.
The movie magic it’s called stays forever. Lasts forever. How do they do it? It’s amazing. That buttered popcorn with salt and candy 🍭 can be a nice gift to yourself. In the USA where we can go anywhere and do anything anytime. How is it in other countries to go out?
A place of entertainment and why all because someone wanted an acting job and to hold a movie camera. Go from there. You can’t ever stop going or get it out of your head. The big dark room becomes a fortress kinda. The actors show up all the time daily On television and magazines. And with you the scenes and plot of movies and soundtracks sometimes becomes all you need to think about talk about and sleep on. Why? No one knows. Free country maybe.
I worked at a cinema even to find out a few hours a week over the summer dresses up to clean bathrooms there and serve popcorn. Hired as a manager once for a day. Watched movies for free every week. Cleaned until 3a. Wondered how to get into a movie job. And just read books about the mind and movies.
For years just going alone. Sometimes with a date. Rarely with friends. Movie time before kids was a big pastime. We took the kids to the show once or twice. My family goes while I stay at work. As kids we sat in a group of people watching movies.
It’s better to bring people. Talk about the movie. The red carpet events and movie stars become your life after going out to the show. So I couldn’t do anything else but look for acting jobs . And got one with Mike Cline from my HighSchool who shot scenes with himself in a horror film of his own. We went out to the deep parts of the woods of Indiana and his grandpas old shed. Then outside the Fransican Hospital Entrance. Where he and I shot scenes.
Then in Chicago I worked at ComicCon. Met famous people. Then came home after auditioning for small theatre parts and writing my own scripts for Performing Arts 🎭. Worked there as an usher. Fascinated by mom and dad watching movies together again and again and talking about it made me love stars and talk about movies everywhere I went.
Mom loved 🍿. She took us to Universal Studios and MGM Studios . She took us to Las Vegas. Movies 🎥 have been in the depths of my memories and imagination all my life. And popcorn everyday. Watch a movie with someone at the theatre. It’s safer and you won’t stop.
