Theater @ The Ace Hotel
Tickets ($15-$35)
Next Fest is a small selection of some of the films that were very well liked at Sundance. We get them, plus a musical act and like last year it's at The Theater @ The Ace Hotel.
The only one we really would like to see is Bitch +Sleigh Bells. Basically, the story of a housewife so miffed by her awful family she's act like a real bitch, I mean a dog. So now her family has to deal with their Mom being a dog, in mind only. It's not the 80's or 90's where that would have been a real movie.
