February in NoHo: The Highly Curated Throwback Thursday Series in Honor of Marijuana Awareness Month

January 24, 2018 by Lamb L.

In celebration of Marijuana Awareness Month, we proudly present ‘The Highly Curated‘ film series every Throwback Thursday in February at the Laemmle NoHo 7! Our crop of films includes WAYNE’S WORLD, THE BIG LEBOWSKI, FANTASTIC PLANET, and HALF BAKED. Help us spread the word and tell your buds! Many people enjoy the effects of marijuana through its various forms, like hemp-derived oils, especially when it helps them to overcome various ailments like anxiety. Do you use CBD oil to combat your anxiety? If so, you might want to make the most of a cbdistillery coupon to help you cut the costs! It is no secret that there are also people who love to smoke marijuana recreationally too. Some friends of mine even like to smoke cannabis by using cool bongs. However, that being said, smoking cannabis is not without its risks. For example, sometimes you might find yourself in a situation where you have to prove that your body is free of any substances and there might even be consequences to face if your test comes back positive. In some cases, failing a drug test can even cost you your job. Nonetheless, something that people do to combat this is to look into detox pills, like the ones found here, in order to pass such a test. So, words of warning to one side, let us now get on to our marijuana-themed movie marathon…

February 8: The Big Lebowski

Way out west there was this fella… fella I wanna tell ya about. Fella by the name of Jeff Lebowski. At least that was the handle his loving parents gave him, but he never had much use for it himself. Mr. Lebowski, he called himself “The Dude”… Format: DCP. Click here for tickets.

February 15: Fantastic Planet

Based on the 1957 novel Oms en série by French writer Stefan Wul Fantastic Planet is an utterly trippy French/Czech allegorical animation about humans living on a strange planet dominated by giant humanoid aliens who consider them pets. Format: DCP. Click here for tickets.

Tickets: http://laemmle.com/film/kerouacs-road-beat-nation | Subscribe: http://bit.ly/3b8JTym | KEROUAC’S ROAD: THE BEAT OF A NATION explores how the legacy of Jack Kerouac’s iconic novel On the Road reflects in today’s America. The film interweaves stories of modern-day “on-the-roaders” who share connections to Kerouac’s life, alongside those influenced by him or knew and loved him.

Featured participants include Josh Brolin, W. Kamau Bell, Natalie Merchant, Matt Dillon, David Amram and Joyce Johnson. On the Road remains as relevant today as it was in the 1950s, but both the book and Kerouac himself have never been explored in this way before.
