posted by catherine / August 13, 2006 / but y'all have got to go see little miss sunshine. it's only playing in one theater in atlanta, and when we found out the 7:15 showing was sold out, we, along with THRONGS of other people, got tickets for the 7:45. and i never in my life would have thought you could feel so much palpable murderous stress amongst a movie-going crowd on a saturday night. if people didn't make it into that second showing, somebody was gonna DIE.
fortunately, the movie made everybody happy and shiny and we all clapped at the end. it was lovely.

Yeah I keep hearing this from people. It's on my list!
I went to go see it a couple wees ago in Fair City Mall, and we had the same thing. People lined up all the way through the mall to get tickets, major stress levels, buying tickets for every available show time. But it was so wonderful that all that stress disappeared. Particularly in the end, wow was that hilarious.
There was also a huge line outside of the Shirlington theatre last Friday. It really is excellent; I hadn't laughed so hard in a long time.
i also had to get tickets for a later show after the show i wanted to see was sold out. and even then, i ended up sitting in the second damn row, and not even in the middle. worst seat ever. plus, i was squished in by old people everywhere (this was at landmark in bethesda). the movie was fantastic, though. almost worth the crowd and the bad seats.
