Want to see a great movie?
Defying Categorization (I don't know where to put this) Tagged gene siskel theater, singing revolution 2 Comments »After renting the disaster that was Semi-Pro this weekend (I had such high hopes—it starred Will Ferrell!), I was ready for a good movie. The Singing Revolution delivered. It’s about Estonia’s struggle to end Soviet occupation with a series of non-violent demonstrations, and it’s an amazing story. Plus, the music is beautiful.
If you’re in Chicago, it plays at 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. tonight at the Gene Siskel Theater. Visit the movie’s website to watch the trailer and see the other locations where it’s playing. If it’s not showing anywhere near you, you can sign up to bring it to a nearby theater.

Go see it! You won’t be sorry.
