Signs of the Zodiac: Leo (Secret Screening)

Do you believe in astrology? Whether you do or not, the signs of the zodiac offer an exciting perspective on day-to-day life -- and not only if you're a newspaper intern. Should you start a new project this month? Is your lover's moon sign compatible with yours? While there are many films that center on the idea of astrology or use horoscopes as a plot catalyst, we think it's more fun to see which films succeed in portraying the perfect Aquarius, Leo, or (gasp) Scorpio.

Every month, we celebrate the cinematic zodiac, with a secret screening featuring a character that fully embodies what that sign is all about. Better still, if the zodiac sign of the month is yours, you can pick up a free box of popcorn at our bar! So, what's your rising, darling?

This month: Leo

Leos are natural born leaders. Dramatic, dominant, and always eager to be in the spotlight, the Leo embodies the element of Fire in every sense of the word: they are warmhearted, but also hot-tempered. However, do not be fooled by the Leo's majestic exterior. Underneath their tough demeanor, the Leo cherishes a deep desire to be surrounded with friends and loved ones, and the idea of abandonment will send them cowering to their cave.

This 2004 comedy classic features not one, but a multitude of Leo characters who all are keen to win something big. Filled with bone-dry humor and a much-memed dance scene, this screening is surely the most appropriate way to ring out Leo season. Bring your friends along for the ride, and don't forget your chapstick!

In English. Approximately 95 minutes. 

Bar opens @ 20:00.
Admission is free, but donations are encouraged.
Free popcorn for all Leos!
