Cedar Lee Theatre, 2163 Lee Road, Cleveland Heights, OH, USI Love Boosters is a new film by director Boots Riley. He is know for the film Sorry to Bother You (2018). In this film, A crew of professional shoplifters takes aim at a cutthroat fashion maven. I will be posting Monday films again, if no one else does, because it is discount day and seeing a film is $6 a ticket at the Cedar Lee. After the film we will go to Comuzel which we can walk to after the movie. Meet by where the bench and bathroom are before and after the film.
