A Full House

Much as I like having the choice of any seat in the place, there is something sad about an empty theatre. It reminds me of the films I saw in packed houses, of queues downtown that stretched right around the block and back past the ticket windows, of seats far from the screen you still felt lucky to get. And so it was last night that I didn’t mind the cost or the crowds, I didn’t mind standing in line, because I was going to see a new blockbuster, and you know what . . . I got exactly the seat I wanted!
