Contest: Win passes to screening of Killing Them Softly

Posted by Staff / November 22, 2012

killing them softly torontoNew Orleans continues to fascinate authors and filmmakers--particularly its seedy underbelly. The upcoming film Killing Them Softly takes a look at gambling, the mob, and other activities necessitating grim black leather jackets. Starring a particularly hirsute Brad Pitt and directed by Andrew Dominik (The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford), the film debuted at Cannes earlier this year to good reviews, and looks to be primed for holiday box office gold.

Want to see the film before it hits Toronto theatres? Here's how.

THE PRIZE

10 lucky readers will receive double passes (good for 2 people) to see a screening of Killing Them Softly on November 29 at 7 pm at Cineplex Yonge and Dundas (10 Dundas Street East, Suite 402).

HOW TO WIN

To win, just answer the following question: Which 1974 novel is Killing Them Softly based on?

The first 10 correct commenters win the tickets. Please make sure to include a valid email address in the comment form "Email Address" field so that we can contact you if you're a winner.

FINE PRINT

You must be a Toronto-area resident to win. Only one comment and answer per person. If you include multiple answers or post multiple comments you will be disqualified, and the winner must pick up their own tickets.

UPDATE

This contest is now closed. Winners will be contacted shortly.
