I discovered the
Capitol Hills Arts Workshop over a year ago! When it was
decided that CV2001 was to be held in Washington, D.C., I
immediately called CHAW and made plans for a film festival here.
The folks at CHAW were wonderful!

What movies to
watch?!
I was able to rent
"Singapore Sue" for just a couple of dollars, so I figured,
"Why not!" If you think SS is stinky on your dinky
little television, it is a major PU on the big screen!! How in
the world did anyone see potential in this young actor?! And
those eyebrows!! I didn't know a person could have so many
muscles in his forehead!! Archie Leach obviously learned a few
eyebrow acrobatics while with the Pender Troupe!!
Selfishly, I wanted
everyone to see one of the rare, old ones. "Kiss & Make
Up" is a favorite of mine. It's so, SO silly! If the
roars of laughter were any indication, everyone seemed to enjoy it a
lot. "Corned Beef and Cabbage, I Love You!"
John Stone, about "Kiss & Make
Up" -
"Where has this movie been all my life?!"
Everyone voted last
fall for the second movie we'd see. "My Favorite
Wife" was the winner, with "The Awful Truth" a
close second. When John Stone, CHAW program coordinator for
'Films on the Hill,' told me that he had a nice 16mm copy of
"The Awful Truth" we could use at no cost, "The
Awful Truth" became our #1 choice!

"I've always
thought Cary was handsome, but seeing him on the big screen was
breathtaking. What a fabulously gorgeous man." --

"Saturday was a
total triumph. The movies were great. The Warbrides took over the
CHAW and made watching Kiss and Make Up and the Awful Truth a
riotous event. Kiss and Make Up was worth the trip for me. Seeing
a really great CG movie that I'd never seen before with the
warbrides, on the big screen was one of the biggest thrills ever
for me." -- Jenny
