Weekend movie
June 12, 2008
I watched Sex and the City last weekend. With some of my friends. We’d always been following the series and the thought of watching it back to back (and not just for 20 mins a day) was all the reason we needed to watch the movie (None of us own the DVD series yet). So I pretty much juggled work that day so that I could leave on time. Knowing Blore’s legendary traffic woes especially on a Friday evening, I had no choice but to leave almost 2 hours before the movie was scheduled to begin. Reaching the multiplex, my friend and I were about to dig into some yummy chaat in the multiplex’s food complex, when our other friend called to tell us she’s running late and had not picked up the tickets. Whattt? I left work early to see others go past me for the movie??? Some frantic calls and 25 mins of standing in the queue, we got our tickets. Phew! Ran upstairs, literally gobbled some food, squeezed oursleves in the lift that had women and more women all heading to watch the same movie and found that we’d be sitting right in the first row! Gandhi class if you may!
We loved the movie. Totally. It delivered what it promised. Women, men problems, sex, marriage, style, fashion, emotions (over the top of course!!) and love, love, love, love. There were some priceless moments that left us in splits. There’s something so relatable to such movies, serials and books. On some level, you connect. And laugh. That’s the best part
Go watch it if you already haven’t.
