Yeah, I had a similar feeling at a Landmark "Oriental" theater in Milwaukee, except I was watching Burn After Reading so it was more like, I can't wait until this movie is over so I can go check out those giant Buddhas.  I did have a similar feeling seeing Lawrence of Arabia at the Ziegfield, though.

Luckily this Cary Grant retrospective is all happening at my neighborhood theater, so it's not too distracting.  Today I saw The Awful Truth -- still totally hilarious.

BAM actually has a lot of great restrospectives coming up lately -- Robert Redford, Dario Argento, Juliette Binoche.  I just got my advance tix for a screening of Blue, which I can't WAIT to see in a theater.  Q&A with Juliette Binoche afterward.
Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

I would like to see her in person.  She's like my Alyssa Milano!

She's great, I agree. Hope she doesn't go off on her conspiracy theories during the Q&A though - that could be awkward.

Hmm, don't think I've heard these.

EDIT: Oh great, a 9/11 truther.  Oh well.

it wasn't over the top, but it was skeevy. I hope that actress was playing under her age.
I'm sure she's probably 15 or something.

She's actually a middle-aged, cigar-smoking midget dwarf diminutive sort.

I really don't appreciate your sarcastic, anti-comedy tone, Bro!

Probably one of my favorite books. Best sympathetic "villain" of all time!
