Today is the first anniversary of the day I moved to Austin. J and I went to see
Cleopatra at the Paramount Theater downtown. It was the original 243-minute, 70 mm version of the film, which hasn't been seen in theaters since it was released in 1963. The first half is better than the second half, which gets a little tedious, but wow what a feast. Afterwards (speaking of feast) we went to Hoover's and had catfish po-boys and mashed potatoes.
