    Wow, you lucky dog you!

    Hm-m-m-m-m, wonder what a round-trip ticket from SFO to Belfast would set me back? You would let me camp out in your living room, right, Emmanuel?

    Well, we did get to see The Quiet Man on the big screen a couple of years ago, and had a great time.

    Enjoy it for all of us who can't be there!!

    Re: Duke on the big screen.

    Hmmm, an hour's flight from Portsmouth to Belfast = a flight from Corpus Christi "International" airport to Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW). I wonder how much a ticket would cost round trip? I wonder if the price here vs in England, would be about the same?

    Well, the rumor is still goig on here in town that the old Ritz Theater, which is located downtown here in Corpus Christi, is suppoed to be undergoing renovation and is only going to show older classic movies. If it ever does happen, I will be spending a lot of my time there.

    Re: Duke on the big screen.

    Hi all,

    Mike you are right the QFT are showing the
    movies as part of "THE Belfast Festival at Queens".
    It runs from 27th October, The Searchers will be
    shown first.

    Carl I wish you could be here to enjoy these movies.
    Chester, We could manage more than a bed by the fire.

    Keith, I'm sorry I don't come around as much as I would like to,
    I'm up to my eyes at work, but when I find a wee bit of time
    to myself this is the place I head for first, even if it's just to
    read all the wonderful posts

    Hi Emmanuel

    It is not like the Queen's festival to have something so commerical but it is nice to see anyway. I notice the start times are quarter past 6 which is a bit of a silly time to start them as most people will not have the opportunity to go unless they go straight from work.

    Re: Duke on the big screen.

    Hi all,

    Well I went and watched Duke in "The Searchers"
    on Friday night, I went with my wife, daughter,and
    2 of our sons, and I have to say that it was an
    unforgetable experience. They had an original
    Vista Vision print which made it even more enjoyable,
    and to hear people laugh at all the right places in the
    movie was really something. I missed out on
    "She Wore a Yellow Ribbon" tonight, but I'm going to
    see "Fort Apache" tomorrow night, The Shootist" on
    Tuesday, night and "stagecoach" on Thursday night.
    I wish you all could be there.
