Felicia Maroni from Seeing Faces in Movies needed discount childcare on extremely short notice due to a sudden emergency. It's a good thing Movies 4 Dayz HQ is conveniently located adjacent to Toronto by way of Chicago so she asked me first. I told her I had no surefire options but that my dog Lady would serve as good a nana to her little one while we took the Shoe Leather Express all around the neighborhood to check in w/ different potential options. What the hell? Between her toddler & my dog, there were certainly enough brain cells in that small apartment to keep them safe up to & including most conceivable lengths of time. If I'm being honest, I had to wonder if Felicia just needed a break from the little apron-puller, if only for a few hours. During that time she discussed her personal fears & trepidations concerning her daughter's upcoming journey thru puberty & into womanhood. I encouraged her to look on the bright side, citing that no matter what happens, it's unlikely her little girl would grow into a furry feral beast w/ the desire to rip everything to bloody pieces. After conceding my point, we shared a bottle of Four Roses at a deserted public park & talked about how much her current distress related to the most amazing indie darling sisterhood werewolf movie to ever come out of the Great White North- Ginger Snaps! Gas up the drug van & load up on wolfsbane cuz these girls are flashing thru puberty w/ fuzzy feral fierceness complete w/ flesh ripping claws & bone crunching jaws giving us one of the most insightful & beautifully realized werewolf flicks to delight gorehounds & film freaks the world over! We howl about the design, lap up all the delicious dialogue, and moon over the litany of lycanthropic thematic implications. As we killed the bourbon & tried texting her toddler, she wondered if the child would be up to the task of picking up another bottle & meeting us at the park. I confessed I didn't know exactly where we were. Felicia said that according to the GPS, we were way out on the corner of Fucked Up & Evil.
