Watch the Movie Dammit!


Okay, I'm the first to admit that the price of a movie this day can get kinda steep, but... you still can't beat the price for the experience, esp. like watching an old film noir on the big screen. In this case, I watched "Double Indemnity" at The Metro in the U district in Seattle.


The screen was large, the print digitally remastered.. if only it weren't for those darn eco-friendly popcorn bags! I'm all for the enviorment, but seriously?? These bags are louder than a giggle in church. Of course, the gal who sat next to me felt it necessary to "scold" me for my loudness, I guess the volume of my popcorn bag is my fault. I told her to take it up with management. I paid my $10.00 just like she did, so I figured complain all you want, I'm enjoying my Landmark Theatre popcorn (the best in the city in my opinion).


It didn't ruin my experience though, or my enjoyment of the classic but terribly dated dialogue. We are so lucky to live in a city big enough to offer more than just the standard movie fare, I for one will keep paying the $10-11.50 for a 2 hour escape from the everyday, much cheaper than thearapy!
