It started out as an impulsive, spur of the moment decision. I'd gotten birthday money from my sister, so I decided to treat myself since I'd really bad week. I'd listened to the first book on my MP3 player while I walk. Plus I'd gotten a bit caught up in the hype, seeing the cast making their rounds of talk shows and the red carpet premier on E!. So when I saw New Moon had opened in my town Friday for an early afternoon showing, I got in line with all the Goth kids and giggling teenage girls.
I have to confess that standing there in the cold, listening to the kids talk, and text, and talk about their texting, I got swept away in the moment. For a bit I felt that flush of being sixteen again. That was until I discovered that I was only one in line who wasn't tech savvy enough to pre-order my ticket on line. (Shake my head and laugh.)
I didn't occur to me that it would be sold out or there would be a line at the movie theatre. I live in a small town where things like that hardly ever happen. Often if I go to an afternoon show during the week I am the only one there.
So I dragged myself back to the car while the kids in line all texted their friends about how the movie was sold out.
This afternoon I set out again, hoping that all the excitement had passed and that I could actually get a ticket. There was a shorter line. This time there were a few adults in the crowd, but the excited energy was still there.
So was the movie worth all the hype and two trips to the movie theatre?
YES! It satisfied all the swooning girls around me. What can I say -- it was trip back to high school with all the angst of first love that you just know you can't live without. And what girl wouldn't want to be caught between two passionate bad boys? Topped off with an ending hook that left us wanting more. It's a must see for the hopeless romantic in all of us who want to experience again that rush of first love and believe that anything is possible.
