Art

The Uptown Theater in lower Queen Anne (my neighborhood) closed last Spring. Another example of a local business not being able to survive the changing times. However, the Seattle International Film Festival (SIFF) saved the Uptown Theater and is using it as a permanent facility. The grand opening is this week. One of the movies they are featuring this week is The Godfather. It's one of my top five favorite movies. I believe the last time I saw in on the big screen was in 1973 in Boise Idaho (long story for another time). Anyway, it was thrilling to see it in a theater. They are showing it again on Thursday evening. I might have to go again.

Beyond five stars.
