Movies and ponies.

We don't usually post about things to do in NYC because we don't usually do them. We are them. However, here are two exceptions:

The first was brought to our attention by the newly sober Rob Thurman (how's that going for you?). Tomorrow, August 13, is Home Movie Day. At various theaters around the country, random people will bring their home movies to be shown on the silver screen (or in NYC's Anthology Film Archives's case, the dirty gray screen). Depending on who brings his/her movies, it could be a downright gas. Or it could be worse than having to sit through Must Love Dogs. The good thing is, if it sucks, you can leave. For locations in your city, click here. As we already mentioned, NYC's festival will take place at dusty old Anthology Film Archives.

Also, NB enthusiast Eileen Kelly has a show in the NYC Fringe Festival! The show is called My Pony's in the Garage, and it presents Miss Kelly performing stories of her childhood, much like a live home movie! The show had a recently critically acclaimed run in NYC, and it's back and ponier than ever for the Fringe. And, really, what's not funny about accidental overdoses and child molesters?

Enjoy!
