Let's go see: Wild Horse Nine

Hello! Excited to meet everyone on Wednesday morning if you are still able to make it.

The movie we’ll be seeing is Wild Horse Nine at the Angelika Film Center in the Mosaic District. There are several parking garages in the Mosaic district that are basically right across from the theater if you plan to drive. The Dunn Loring-Merrifield metro stop on the orange line is also about a 20-minute walk from the theater if you plan to metro. (Just be careful as you are crossing 29 at the crosswalk.)

The showtime is scheduled for 11:10 am, which is when commercials/previews start. At Angelika, the movie itself usually starts around 15 minutes later than the scheduled time, so you would want to be in your seat by 11:25 at the latest to catch the start.

You can buy your ticket at the counter right when you walk in to the building, or you can buy it in advance at their website here: https://angelikafilmcenter.com/mosaic

They have a concession counter in the theater that has the usual popcorn/candy/fountain drinks but there is usually only one or two people working at the counter so just keep that in mind in case there is a line, because it will probably move pretty slow.

The runtime of the movie is just under two hours, so we would be getting out around 1:30 to have lunch and talk about the movie.

There are many restaurants right in the Mosaic district right outside the theater, and they include some of your typical fast-casual places to more sit-down places with wait service. You can see what restaurants are around here: https://mosaicdistrict.com/restaurants/ I am open to suggestions!

There are currently around 10 of us going so if we want to go to a sit-down place I would probably need to call ahead which I am happy to do but would want to get people’s thoughts on where they would like to go. Just a heads up that some of the sit-down places can be a little on the pricier side. If we wanted to do something more fast-casual we might be able to take our lunch outside and sit on the lawn area right outside the theater. This would require either sitting on the ground or on a low wall. (Just to be clear you would be paying for your own lunch wherever we decide to go.)

I plan to be posted up right next the theater steps behind the coffee shop by around 11 am…look for me! I’ll probably head inside around 11:15. And please feel free to make any lunch suggestions or ask any questions in the event chat. See you soon!
