You can be the first on your block to say you saw "Whip It" if you attend a sneak preview on Saturday.

The Ellen Page-starring, Drew Barrymore-directed roller derby comedy set in Austin is playing at 7 p.m. Saturday exclusively at Cinemark Tulsa, 71st Street and U.S. 169.

The movie opens to the public next Friday, Oct. 2, and is packed with grrl power, also starring Kristen Wiig, Juliette Lewis, Alia Shawkat, Eve and Zoe Bell. Look for my review in next Friday's Scene section.

The film is showing at 500 theaters nationwide on Saturday night, with a promotion claiming that free T-shirts are being distributed, while available.
