Fat Sam's grandslam speakeasy

Sheffield type people - Abbeydale Picture House Youth Group are putting on a production of Bugsy Malone next week and I thought I'd go on the Friday (21st May). I've been meaning to Abbeydale Picture House for ages and I like Bugsy Malone, besides I'm interested to see just how much mess the kids will make with the splurge guns, does anyone else fancy it?. The tickets are £10 for adults.

(You will have the "You give a little love and it all comes back to you" song in your head for the rest of the day now :) All together now: da da da da da da daaaaah!)

I think the only film I've ever seen that is about gangsters is Bugsy Malone, that and Guys and Dolls I suppose, so in my head mobsters are all like Fat Sam and Big Julie from Chicago. I like it that way, I have no interest in seeing Goodfellas or anything like it, it would just shatter the illusion for me.


Quote of the day

Overhead the other day:

"He didn't think that Chick Flicks were movies, the thought it was when you showed someone the V's"

I don't know how you can mix up girlie films with making an obscene gesture but someone has managed it. I love overhearing random bits of other people's conversations.
