Get To It

Your Get To It maven is doing fucking cartwheels today because of her two-day week. However, this does not mean that I will be giving yinz a two-day week of events and activities. Fun does not take vacations, people!

Monday night, head over to the Black Cat for a screening of Pirate Radio USA. Your paltry $5 admission fee benefits the Community Powered Radio project.

Tuesday is the final day of the AFI European Union Film Showcase. Films you can still catch: The Country Teacher, Loss, Birdsong, and Night and Day.

Milk opens on Wednesday. Catch it at either of the Landmark theatres.

Thursday, channel Pilgrim steez in this USA-made Zac Posen bolero or this prim-ly fabulous 3.1 Phillip Lim blouse. Very Prudence Goodwife, no?

How soothing does this sound? Moonlight and Clouds: Silver and Gold in the Arts of Japan is at the Freer-Sackler Gallery until May 10. Go on Friday and decompress.

Tuesday - wait, do I need to tell you what to get to? Pull that lever, son, then go watch one of the nine millions televisions in DC that will be broadcasting the results of the event-which-shall-not-be-named. The Voldemort of happenings.

Wednesday, The Boy in the Striped Pajamas screens at Landmark's E Street Cinema. (RSVP to maintern4@aiusa.org by tomorrow for tickets!)

On Thursday, to kick off their European Union Film Showcase, the AFI will screen Il y a longtemps que je t'aime, Phillippe Claudel's new film about a woman released from prison after 15 years of incarceration.

The Hirshhorn After Hours party is always A Time, but Friday's looks like it will be extra-cragee: Dan Deacon is scheduled to wreck things (your ears, your soul, possibly property?) - plus, the show that just went up promises to be illuminating.
