Movies are a challenge for me.<\/p>\n
I can’t even recall the last movie I saw before tonight. It was something in California — either an X-Men movie or Star Wars Episode I. (Neither would be my choice. I like cartoons and romantic comedies, usually.)<\/p>\n
But, I am in Davis, CA, alone, and wanted to do something tonight. Even though it was $11.50 (plus $4 for snacks), I decided to try Up!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n There is a lot to be said for going to a movie in a college town, in the theatre closest to campus. No children. No cell phones. Actually… almost no people on a Friday night showing in June.<\/p>\n It was great. The movie was touching, emotional… and nothing like watching on a television. Because of the price, I doubt I would do this often. But, I’m glad I did. I had forgotten how huge the screens are.<\/p>\n Anyway, it turns out that I can go to a movie — when almost no one else is in the theater.<\/p>\n Wish one person had been with me. The start of Up!<\/strong><\/em> would have been nice to share in a theater with her. It was very touching.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Movies are a challenge for me.
