Citizen Does Love Differently

We're not ashamed to say it.... we love love. And - as your independent video store open to more than just mainstream movies - we're open to more than just mainstream ways of falling, being, finding, and experiencing love. So we're glad that there's a day in February dedicated to this topic, and we're going to do everything we can do to celebrate it in our own unique, citizen video way.

Our movie matinees at the Whistle Stop this month are a great back to back set up - True Romance and Badlands. Click here to read why we decided to screen these two movies together in the same month and why they particularly work with this month of love.

On on the day of amor, we have ways to help you celebrate that no executive at Hallmark or DeBeers could ever come close to. During the day we're combining our love and creative juices with Pixie's Salon, local crafters and the Children's Heart Institute. Get pampered in style and give to an organization with a lot of heart. We'll be having a craft fair over at Pixies Salon. All the proceeds from their services and 20% of the sales for Citizen Video will go to a family in the Children's Heart Institute. We're calling it Have a Heart, because it's all about a lot of little folk with a lot of heart.

In the evening, the fun and creativity doesn't stop. We've put together a reel called Get It On or Get the F**K Out and we're screening it over at the Whistle Stop at 9pm. Basically it consists of the best make-out scenes and best break-up scenes from movies and who can tell which will be the most entertaining. Come celebrate singlehood, couplehood, triplehood, relationships and whatever way love turns you on.
