Afternoon Delight

FEBRUARY 10TH, 2011

Afternoon Delight

Some say the best way to cure a Saturday night hangover is to drink more on Sunday. We say sure, with a side of movie matinee.

The Waldorf Hotel’s new admission-by-donation Sunday film series, “Day for Night”, plays a range of eccentric indies, cult classics and art films, with a few NFB shorts to warm-up, in their laid-back lower-level clubhouse. There’s cocktails too. When we went to watch Johnny Depp in Jim Jarmusch’s Dead Man, Caesars were the popular order.

This weekend, it’s a Valentine’s Day double bill of the Quentin Tarentino-scripted flick True Romance and Terrance Malick’s Badlands. Not your regular romance fare and we like it.

“Day for Night,” Sundays, starting at 3 p.m., The Waldorf Hotel, 1489 E. Hastings St., Vancouver, 604-253-7141, www.waldorfhotel.com
