AFI and Target have come together with Arclight cinemas to bring us a very cool event on the first of October. We get wind of this stunning spectacular from the glory caves of Yahoo:
Sit beside Steve Martin for a screening of “The Jerk,” share a theater with Mike Myers for a showing of “Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery” or squirm in your seat alongside Jodie Foster during “The Silence of the Lambs.” These stars — along with Dustin Hoffman, Cameron Diaz, Denzel Washington, Annette Bening, Jim Carrey, Shirley MacLaine, Rita Moreno and Keanu Reeves — will share some of their most famous films with their fans next month at “Target Presents AFI Night at the Movies.”
The one-night-only event is set to take over the ArcLight theater in Hollywood on Oct. 1. Tickets are $25 and will be available beginning Sept. 17.
The Complete list of films can be found here. I will claw tooth and nail to get into The Jerk, and also hope to get into the screening of The Man Who Would Be King with Sean Connery.
We have said on numerous occasions that the Arclight is the greatest theatre on earth, and this event just heaps validity upon that declaration. I am floored at how awesome this event is, and will be. The Jerk is my favorite film, and I am very, very pleased that I will be able to see it on the big screen for the first time.
Bravo to all responsible for making this happen.
