Classical Films Theater

It has become one of my dream that someday i would have my own theater building in which i would have played classical films which agreed to certain theme. A Stanley Kubrick retrospective, for an instance. I've heard that in some other part of the globe, Australia, for example, US, most definitely, there were some theaters that dedicated themselves to that purpose. In Indonesia, however, there were no such thing. Even Blitz Megaplex which was scheduled to open in Jakarta on October 2006, still only had its sole theater in Bandung - to think that you guys who live in Bandung could had an opportunity to watch The Host in a big screen still infuriates me.

Well, anyway, on a lesser level, some of my acquaintances had realized my dream.

Scheduled to start this Sunday afternoon at some certain restaurant at Pondok Indah Mall II, we'd have a 'theater' that played classical film. Until now, the event originator still discussed what to play during the first month (March). Some titles already being mentioned, such as The Maltese Falcon (1941), Du rififi chez les hommes (1955), and Les Diaboliques (1955). And if judging by the film selection, i figured that this month's theme would be a 'noir'. And of course, i would be there should the event really get started.
