Another Alt-Weekly Movie Sighting
This just in from Gambit Weekly editor Michael Tisserand: "Gambit Weekly's classified section appears in a pivotal scene in the new movie The Skeleton Key. Early on, as Kate Hudson rides a streetcar, she peruses our employment ads and answers one that leads her to the swamp where all sorts of hyper-Hollywoodized hoodoo hijinks start to happen.
