I posted this elsewhere, but wanted to feature it here, as well.

This is at the Circle Cinema in Tulsa, Oklahoma. It’s a great theatre that shows first run movies, hosts book events and press events, and is the only place in town to see Lithuanian art films and honors "Weird Al" Yankovic’s UHF every few years.

(Full disclosure: I’m in UHF.)

The Circle also has moderately priced popcorn and, right outside, an actual Tulsa Walk of Fame.

(Full disclosure: I’m not in the sidewalk.)

This is a place run by incredibly kind and loyal people who love film and community.

What Circle did yesterday was very much a surprise and very much sweet.

To Clark and Chuck, thank you.
