This weekend I took my daughter to see another "mother," the mother of all slasher movies, that is, which in our case happened to be a screening of Hitchock's classic film,
Psycho.
Now, normally, this is not something I suggest
every mother and daughter do. However, in our case it worked. And it made for the perfect day together.
How could I pass up a chance to share
Psycho at
The Alex Theater in Glendale, which is an experience in itself? Now, I can honestly state what I suspected all along, that
Psycho makes for some great mother-teen-girl bonding.

I wish we had more revival houses still in business, because there's nothing like seeing movies the way they were meant to be seen in real movie theaters with an audience.
Film Revivalists Unite!!!
Yes, Prince met us at The Alex, there, too. (See what our film loving blogger homies miss by not making dates outside of just staring at computer computer screens?)
What good is social networking if people don't act SOCIAL once in a while? Right?
Besides, hello? IT WAS FUN!
We were late, though. We only got there after being held up at the make up counter at Macy's and then all that damn downtown traffic, but Prince saved us seats and filled us in on missing the first few minutes which involved Janet stealing cash to sneak off with her hot BF.
But, yes! Yes! I admit it! I met Bamboo Nation Guy in a dark theater to see a slasher film with my thirteen year old daughter and then we "cruised" Brand Blvd.
We were b-b-b-bad to the bone.
Let's do it again, soon.
