Hey there, Graphic Content fans, Matt and Erin here with your rock-tastic film screening for November, 2001′s Josie and The Pussycats! For this special presentation of the girl power classic, we’ve teamed up with the boys over at Comics! The Blog to promote this awesome event! Stay tuned to this page as we detail some fun stuff we’re cooking up with Brandon and James, who we last worked with on our Scott Pilgrim Valentine’s Day Spectacular earlier this year. Here’s the info you need about the screening, after the amazing poster designed by Sylvia Moon (smoonie.com)!
The Pussycats, Josie McCoy (Rachel Leigh Cook), Melody Valentine (Tara Reid), and Valerie Brown (Rosario Dawson), are struggling musicians in small-town Riverdale. That is until MegaRecords’ executive Wyatt Frame comes to town and signs them to a lucrative deal. Little do they know that the company intends to take their songs and hide subliminal consumerist messages within them. Will Josie and The Pussycats unwittingly become another soulless corporate pop act, or will the girls band together to conquer the commercial machine? Adapted from the Archie Comics characters created by Dan DeCarlo.
Join Graphic Content and special guests Comics! The Blog for this subversive and satirical comedy about fame, consumerism, and the importance of friendship. Cat ears and bras optional, but highly encouraged.
Tuesday, November 20th at 9:00 PM. The movie is rated PG and runs for 98 minutes. Tickets are $10 for adults and $8 for students/seniors. Metro Passes will be accepted. Box office opens at 8:15, so come on by early to check out the comics we’ve selected to go with the movie. RSVP on Facebook.
