Rooster and I were plodding through our day, each planning on getting some chores done, although I was actually doing the planning, while Rooster was doing the obeying, when we had a change of plans.
Before going out to the car to run errands, I decided to check the mail. I found an envelope addressed to the boy and me. Here’s what was inside:
To be fair, I had received a heads-up phone call yesterday. Sister had told me what she was going to do, but I didn’t expect the letter to arrive the next day! We have fast mail service!
Rooster and I jumped into action. He ran over to the computer, while I checked my phone…a race to see who could be the first to locate movie times.
I won.
We had already discussed which movie we might want to see. Last night, Tom Cruise was a guest on the Tonight Show. Of course, he was there to promote his newest movie, and he did his job well. Rooster and I were hooked.
We saw that there was showtime beginning in an hour, so we quickly got in the car and were off. Our favorite theater is a solid 30-minutes away, so we didn’t have much time to waste.
Here’s a trailer for the movie:
Because we were there for the matinee, we had enough money left over to buy a large bag of popcorn We added a ton of butter. Yum!
When the movie was over, Rooster and I were quiet, as was the rest of the theater. It was a sobering movie. I know there are mixed reviews out there about the movie. Good thing I’ve never been a fan of so-called “reviews.”
Rooster and I give it two thumbs up! The cinematography is incredible. The storyline is well-executed. We were left sitting on the edge of our seats until the end.
Definitely a movie worth seeing!
Thanks Sister! We thoroughly enjoyed our treat and appreciate your thoughtfulness.
