Stars Are Blind...at Four Corners!

So when I'm tired and lazy, I like to write about local west suburban news instead of Europe. So, here goes:

While I earlier reported the amazing fact that Stephin Merritt will be in Downers Grove on November 1, that has been quickly eclipsed by something even bigger:

Paris Hilton will be literally a couple hundred feet from my house in Woodridge, Illinois tonight.


Paris!

Yes. Her new film National Lampoon's Pledge This! is having its US premiere at 7:00 at Hollywood Blvd.. Why is any movie premiering in Woodridge?

The line starting forming at 3:00pm, so everybody in town better hurry out there.

I remember when that used to just be the "clock tower theatre". I used to walk across the street to it all the time. Much of my early film education came from there. In sixth grade, I remember going there, buying a ticket to Toy Story 2, and sneaking into American Beauty instead, and having it blow my mind. The theatre in the other direction by Toys R Us was classic, too, especially that weird cross-eyed semi-retarded ticket-taker, who I believe works at Loews now?

Ten bucks says Paris Hilton is going to drive the wrong way down that one-way alley behind Kohl's and Hollywood Blvd on the way to my house, like every other asshole.

Sorry, I can't bring myself to post any Paris Hilton tracks.
