Yesterday - December 8th, I saw The Right Stuff. The Theater was giving
away free passes at the University that I go to. Even with the free
passes the theater was only 20% full (this is a big seater about 1000 )

I too like the picture. It was very funny, scary, and enjoyable for a
flim that is over 3 hours long.

Today that Theater is Showing Scarface (should be better at the box
office.

People are just not into sitting 3 hours to see a movie.
But for $5.00 I want to get my moneys worth. A 1.5 hour film may not 
do, but a 3 hour very good film will.
