1. What’s your favorite day & time to go to the movies?

Thursdays at 7pm. Sundays at 10am.

2. What’s your favorite movie theater?

Vista Theater on Sunset Boulevard because of the history and how Tarantino has restored the place. I went there for a lot of midnight screenings this past summer with friends and it revived my love for films like Repoman, Enter the Dragon, Wild at Heart. They have the best popcorn out of any theater in the city. I love how he widened the rows so it’s easy to get past people to your seat and they prioritize showing 35mm and 70mm.
