At EXETER (channeling J.K. Rowling) PART 2: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Finale Screening!!

THE EXETER PICTUREHOUSE THEATER -- Tuesday, August 2, 2011

Kimberly and I walked 30 minutes (with the guidance of saints from above) to the lovely Independent film theater (which was also showing several foreign films and had a billboard advertisement for the new adaptation of Jane Eyre* already released in the States, but coming to British cinemas on 24 September!) for the 8:45 p.m. screening of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2**!   The film was perfect from the opening shot to the end credits -- the music was gorgeous, the acting was spot on, the ending of the journey was breathtakingly riveting and emotional,  and we were both left speechless!! It was a magical evening -- so much so that Kimberly and I have both been drifting off to Harry Potter dreamland ever since! Thank you, J.K Rowling!!

ME (naughtily standing on the couch (subtlely channeling the wizardary of the wonderful Hermoine Granger while silently praying not to be thrown out of the theatre!) in the Exeter PICTUREHOUSE Lounge, at the explicit instruction of Kimberly, the evening's expert photographer :)



ME safely and properly sitting on the couch in the Exeter PICTUREHOUSE lounge minutes before the 8:45 p.m. showing of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2!!



ME lounging on the couch in the Exeter PICTUREHOUSE lounge with the row of artsy photographs/paintings behind and above me!!  The lounge/cafe looked like a space out of an Andy Wharhol production with jazzy music playing :)
