Daily Briefs: ¡Viva la Revolucion! Would you like a pillowy cushion for your butt, hippie?

Friday, the Tivoli will start running both parts of Steven Soderberg's biographical Che as one four-and-a-half-hour-long presentation, without all the extras like "previews," or "ending credits," but with a ten-minute intermission which presumably occurs EXACTLY IN THE MIDDLE of Che Guevera's life, even if he's in the middle of a sentence or something, or else it's not an "authentic" intermission. It is totally going to be the Ocean's 11 of interminable Che Guevera biopics. I think Don Cheadle plays Fidel Castro. This would be a really excellent first date, if you can't get into a Civil War re-enactment or else you don't feel like taking your date to a Narcanon meeting. What a weird first date that would be, is what I'm saying, unless you're stepping out with a patchouli-smelling clerk from Lawrence's Solidarity! Revolutionary Center & Radical Library, in which case, you obviously know how to please the ladies, my friend. Anyway, there's a matinee and an evening screening on Friday and Saturday, a Sunday matinee, and one evening show per night Monday through Thursday. I will totally be LIVING at the Tivoli next week.
