Friday nights are movie nights, but aren’t you tired of just watching movies without getting to discuss them with everyone else in the theater? And aren’t you sick of seeing movies that aren’t about dysfunctional public schooling?

If you answered yes to either of these questions, and if you are going to be in Washington, DC, the evening of Friday, April 30, then have I got a deal for you:

Come to the [E Street Cinema](http://www.landmarktheatres.com/Market/WashingtonDC/EStreetCinema.htm) at 7:15 Friday night and not only will you be able to catch *[The Cartel](http://www.thecartelmovie.com/)*, a searing documentary about what ails American education, but afterward you’ll be able to participate in a discussion about the film hosted by yours truly and the Heritage Foundation’s [Lindsey Burke](http://www.heritage.org/About/Staff/B/Lindsey-Burke)!

Fantastic!

So take your movie night to a whole new level, and join us for *The Cartel* this Friday evening!
