The new Alfa Romeo ad for their Giulietta model, starring the ever-fabulous Uma Thurman brought this to mind: In the film Lost in Translation Bill Murray is an ever-so-slightly-washed-up actor visiting Japan, a country in which his stock is still high, to make a commercial for the premium whiskey brand Suntory. I thought this was a made-up product until I discovered a certain ever-so-slightly-washed-up actor who has been stumbling around in Suntory ads, crystal tumbler in hand, for quite a while.

On Tuesday, we had Culch.ie’s first film screening. As a bit of a Happy Birthday to us, we gathered 80 people in The Sugar Club for a screening of Bill Murray’s classic comedy, Groundhog Day. Oh, for anyone that may be interested, the real Groundhog did see a shadow on Tuesday morning, so we are destined for another 6 weeks of winter. But we didn’t let that ruin our night and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. I just wanted to say thanks to all the people who came along. I had so much fun once I finally calmed down.

Doors will open at 6.30pm and we’ll have a bit of fun, some spot prizes, some drinks and then we’ll laugh our respective arses off at Bill Murray’s classic comedy. Many of your favourite Culch.ie writers and a bunch of friends of Culch.ie will be coming along. Places are very limited, so if you would like to join us, leave a comment below and I’ll email you if … There’s more →
