A benefit screening of Roller Boogie for the Boston Derby Dames will be Friday, September 14, at midnight, at the Coolidge Corner Theatre. The Boston Derby Dames don't mess around.

We’ve decided to take the high road and analyze who the hell we can blame for the awfulness that ensued against New York.
