Non-Festival Adventures
Don't have tickets to any LA Film Festival screenings this weekend and feeling left out? Not to worry, there are movies and parties for you as well.
Cinespace is having their Friday night Anti-Club party with a midnight screening of Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure. They are serving late night food and having drink specials plus Jason Stewart DJing in the main bar area. Best of all, No Cover.
The NuArt is showing Purple Rain at midnight on Friday. Morris Day & The Time, Wendy & Lisa, Apollonia. Need we say more?
The highlight tomorrow night, however, might only be named after a flick but probably won't involve watching it. Enter the Dragon is at Mountain bar in Chinatown and features two floors of Deejays, dancing and art. Mountain bar is at 473 Gin Lang Way in the Chinatown Plaza. Doors open at 10 PM and you'll need to rsvp. This event is sponsored by Atomica Magazine.
