Asteroid City

I've been looking forward to seeing Asteroid City, Wes Anderson's new movie, because his world is different than our world. 

I thought it was opening last Friday, but that was only in L.A. and New York City, so I resigned myself to waiting another week. 

After coming back from Southeast Asia to San Diego (where his roommate lives), Eli 21.10 spent two days in Los Angeles, because his roommate's girlfriend lives there. 

West Hollywood, specifically. 

At this point, a very Eli moment happened. The girlfriend's roommate just happened to be the personal assistant to one of my favorite actors (sorry, can't share the name), and she had tickets to the Asteroid City premiere, and did they want to go?

They did, of course. 

Eli said the movie was great, and going to a premiere was a phenomenal experience. I told him I was only surprised that Wes Anderson didn't see him in the lobby and say, "Hey, kid, you want to be in a movie?"
