BOGO MOVIE TICKETS: Celebrate National Best Friends Day with BOGO Babes tickets at atom on June 8.
June 8 is National Best Friends Day, and if you haven’t made plans yet, we’ve found a budget-friendly way to celebrate.
Thanks to NEON and Atom Tickets, you can buy one ticket to see Babes and get the second one free. It’s a BFF BOGO deal in honor of friendship and well-written comedy. This is a limited-time offer that’s only available on June 8, National Best Friends Day. (Participating theaters only.)
In this quintessentially New York comedy, Broad City star Ilana Glazer (Eden) and Survival of the Thickest lead Michelle Buteau (Dawn) play inseparable childhood best friends who, of course, grew up in New York.
After a one-night stand, Eden realizes she’s pregnant and wants to be a single mom, their friendship is met with a new set of challenges. But this film isn’t just about friendship — it displays the reality of motherhood and just how hard it is to raise a family, with or without a partner. (And, being in NYC doesn’t exactly make it any easier.) From dealing with breast pumps (where Dawn is literally attached to a cord in the wall) to balancing a career and personal life, Babes is a genuine and relatable portrayal of the complexities of modern womanhood.
If you’re interested in learning more about the movie, Mashable’s Film Editor, Kristy Puchko, interviewed Glazer and Buteau about their experience and what it was like to film in the middle of NYC.
Punchko calls the film unabashedly outrageous and rambunctiously heartfelt. “While you may howl with laughter and gasp at a gross-out gag, you’ll also walk away with a big smile — and maybe a bit more appreciation for your own quirks.”
