Drew Wilson now works for the City of Baltimore, but he met his girlfriend, Latasha Pendergraft, way back in 2003 when they both worked at R/C Theaters – now the Eastpoint Movies – on Eastern Avenue.

Their first date was at the theater, where they saw "Paycheck," an otherwise forgettable film starring Ben Affleck in auditorium No. 1.

Contacting Eastpoint management recently, Wilson said he wished to propose to his girlfriend at the concession stand this past Friday in front of family and friends after the couple returned to theater to watch a movie there for the first time in several years.

"It would be very symbolic to our relationship," Wilson explained in an email to Eastpoint management.

Congrats, Drew and Latasha. And here's hoping the Hollywood romance lasts forever.
