2003. 21 years ago on a brisk Saturday morning in October, conflict adverse me got into a heated argument with a stranger over tonight’s film. As I was exiting a fantastic show, a gentleman in his early 50’s who didn’t care for the film was working himself up and trying to get fellow audience member’s angry as well, the end goal being that a full refund be issued. He got in my face after I told him that I really thought it was a fantastic tribute to the genre, and intimated it was meant for “people like me, without taste.” While that may have been true, he didn’t know that- and it was on. Two decades later, I still maintain my position…and I hope the chap back in the day took my parting advice and dropped dead. Directed by Quentin Tarantino and starring Uma Thurman, Lucy Liu, Michael Madsen, Daryl Hannah, Vivica A. Fox, Sonny Chiba, and David Carradine- this is how you Saturday night. The LSCE is proud screen the revenge opus “Kill Bill: Vol 1.” Roll it!
