Local film "Starts Friday" starts Thursday at The Times
In Movies & TV
By Bobby Tanzilo - 3:05 p.m.
When Kenosha-area filmmaker Ben Lewandowski started working on his film "Starts Friday" in 1999, he had no idea it would become a decade-long project. The feature length movie -- shot with amateur Milwaukee actors on the East Side -- makes its Milwaukee debut on Thursday, Dec. 10 at 7 p.m. at The Times Cinema.

Reader Poll
If you could choose, would you prefer December or March to stay warm and snowless in Milwaukee?
December. I'm not ready for winter yet.
March. By then, I need winter to be over.
There's no use complaining or hoping for better weather in Wisconsin.
Actually, I like snow.
