Sure, it’s a little early in the month for a NOW Free Flick Monday at The Royal … but we figured by this point in the winter everyone would need a reason to get out of the house. Who knew the weather would be this nice, especially after the freezing depths of last month’s Scott Pilgrim screening?

Anyway, yes, tonight’s the night, and we’re celebrating the 25th anniversary of Jonathan Demme’s The Silence of the Lambs — which holds up really nicely even after Bryan Fuller’s Hannibal completely redefined Thomas Harris’ universe.

Come on out! First hundred guests get free popcorn, and everyone gets a free movie. Doors open at 6:30 pm, I hit the stage at 7:30 pm. It’s going to be a good night.
