Although, is it just me, or should a parade celebrating July 4th in D.C. perhaps feature something we see so much more of here in the U.S.?

Yes, the world is ending. And the epicenter of it appears to be just north of Los Angeles... #nofilter #apocalypsesoon (at San Fernando Valley)

Do yourselves a big favor and go see this Saturday night! Ate9 Dance Company - 'Going Solo' Yes, I'll be there too. No, not performing... Tickets at ate9dancecompany.com (at MiMoDa Studio)

After finally getting to see them Saturday night, they're definitely a new addition to my list of favorites. Welcome to the club, @grupo_corpo . You're in excellent company! (at Granada Theatre)

Who's a Hal Hartley fan, lives in Los Angeles and is going to see this or any of his other films in a retrospective at Cinefamily starting tonight? He'll be there in person the first three nights (and I'll be there too!).
