Last night Erica and I had the pleasure of attending an advanced screening of The Runaways with a Q & A with Cherie Currie herself! This would have been fantastic on it’s own, but the event was also a benefit for Rock N’ Roll Camp for Girls Los Angeles, and the awesome movie + great cause combo just makes everything better! If you don’t know about the camp, please go to their site www.campforgirls.org, or better yet, watch the documentary they’ve made about the first incarnation of the camp in Portland, Oregon. It’s called “Girls Rock” and is available on the Netflix Instant Queue, for instant no effort viewing right now! We Daking girls went to theatre camp when we were young, but had Rock N’ Roll Camp for Girls been around for us, we would have definitely been there!!

On to the movie…it was great!  The performances were incredible, it was shot beautifully, there was just the right amount of comedy, and a great soundtrack!!  I guess the soundtrack part goes without saying, but you can really tell that Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning studied their subjects intently.  The Q & A with Cherie was really interesting too!  She mentioned several to many times that Dakota was her favorite actress, and that she couldn’t be more thrilled about her portrayal.  She was quite candid about her drug addiction, how she cleaned her life up, and about the fact that the movie made her sick to her stomach to watch the first couple times around.  I can only imagine!

Our friends Simon & Theo, The Black Ghosts, had a song on the Twilight soundtrack and look what we’ve temporarily acquired. It’s a shame it was too big to bring back on the plane. :) Buy the Black Ghosts record, it’s amazing.

Yes, we were there. It is no secret that I am Twilight obsessed. It was really fun and we got to see a lot of amazing stuff.
