Dinner And A Movie With Dan
Dinner and a movie is always a nice way to unwind, especially during the hectic pre-holiday season in Washington -- but Dan Glickman and the Motion Picture Association of America really know how to do it right.
On Monday night, the trade group invited a small group of folks over for a bite to eat and a special screening of "Charlie Wilson's War." The movie opens Dec. 21 and stars Tom Hanks as Wilson, a scandal-prone Democratic congressman from Texas.
Before relaxing in the MPAA's posh, private theater, guests mingled in the group's newly renovated reception hall, which was anchored by an expertly decorated Christmas tree. The caliber of invitees was far loftier than a typical dinner party at my house (no offense to my friends and family whom I believe to be VIPs).
Guests included the Washington Post's Amy Argetsinger; CNN's Wolf Blizter; National Journal's own Linda Douglass; David Mark of The Politico; Capitol File's Jayne Sandman; CBS legend Bob Schieffer; pundit Stuart Rothenberg; NBC's Chuck Todd and a number of others.
