135. Manor Theater (Pittsburgh neighborhood) sold out six consecutive showings
Edited on Sat Jun-26-04 02:51 AM by benfranklin1776
According to the announcement at the beginning of the 11:45 PM Friday showing. They began screening it at midnight Friday on two screens and were showing it on the hour. They added one additional showing at 12:15 AM Saturday and it too sold out. It was an experience. Lots of conversation both in line and lots of interchanges among people inside the theater during the movie. I have never seen such an electrified crowd for ANY movie premiere that I have ever attended.

I too saw the Sanitarium interview. He did not look happy. He can call 1-800-AHT-WAAH as far as I am concerned. All the right wing talk show blather that the mouthpieces pumped out could not deter people from seeing it. Word of mouth should keep the momentum going. All I can say is theaters that bowed to pressure not to screen it must be kicking themselves since they lost a ton of money.
