To any and all Askewers, have you seen Waydowntown, the film by Gary Burns?
I saw it last night. It sorta seemed like the Mallrats that the critics were hoping to see. Not that I don't love Mallrats of course.
"Tom, Sandra, Randy and Curt have all staked a month's salary on a bet to see who can stay indoors the longest. It helps that they live and work in a city's downtown where virtually all of the buildings are connected by a maze of glassed-in bridges. Why, with all of the office towers, shopping malls and apartment buildings joined, they could stay inside until they retire! If it wasn't driving them all slightly crazy."
Anyhoo, if you get a chance, I recommend it.
