I know I said that this blog was going to be about the experience of traveling and living in other places and not about the regular crap of life like what movies we see, but this is different. Maybe. Sort of. So, we went to a movie last night. The application I use in Facebook to track the copious amount of wine we drink was offering a chance to see an advance screening for a new movie called Bottle Shock. For free! About wine!! What's not to like?
The screening was at the Varsity Theatre on Bloor, which is quite nice and similar to Silver City theatres out West. We got in a little later than we intended (talked to a couple of people, stood in line, got referred to more people before finding the guy standing out front with the tickets - but that's what you get for going through some application on FB), so we ended up sitting in one of the front rows. The movie was alright. There were several elements that were familiar (father and son reconciliation, underdog vs. the establishment), but the scenery was good - the wine fields (some might call them vineyards) of northern California. If I won the lottery, I would totally buy a winery. Right now.
We left the theatre with a strong desire for some wine (they should have at least had some tastings), but ended up at a Korean BBQ place with a pint of Sapporo. Enh. What are you going to do?
