Columbia City Cinema
Seattle's Coolest Neighborhood Theater
Got Milk? We sure do. Harvey Milk, that is, with an awesome Oscar-nominated Sean Penn in the title role, Oscar-nominated Josh Brolin as his nemesis, and an exceptional James Franco showing just how talented an actor he really is. Milk, a contender for best picture, starts Friday, February 13 and may play for one week only, so get down and see it. Although San Francisco supervisor and activist Harvey Milk was gay, this is not a movie about gay or straight. It's an uplifting movie about courage and human rights for all. Taken, a pretty good suspense thriller starring Liam Neeson that sort of got overlooked in the Oscar rush, ends Thursday. The Reader, which is getting high praise and good attendance, sticks around for another week and Slumdog Millionaire just keeps going. On February 20, we expect to have Doubt and possibly Revolutionary Road or Frost-Nixon. We also want to bring in the gorgeously animated Coraline. for the kids and perceptive adults as soon as possible. On Facebook? Join the Columbia City Cinema group. Just another great way to stay on top of all that’s happening at Seattle’s Coolest Neighborhood Cinema. See you at the movies. |

Sustainable South SeattleS3 meets to discuss Transit Oriented Development and light rail, Wednesday, February 11, 6-7:30pm at the Columbia City Library If you've heard the buzz about the "Transit Oriented Development" bill (HB 1490) and want to learn what it's all about, come to the S3 meeting on Wednesday from 6-7:30pm at the Columbia City Library. Bill LaBorde from the Transportation Choices Coalition will present details of the bill, including how the neighborhood might change if the bill passes. We'll follow the presentation with Q&A, and a discussion about the pros and cons of the legislation. Info about the bill here. Then we'll hear from Roger Pence, who works for Sound Transit, about the details surrounding Link Light Rail service in the Rainier Valley beginning this July. Learn about schedules, fares, and help brainstorm how S3 can get the word out and encourage more people to ride the trains to get around town… — |
