Our theater received this film today. It's the only one worth watching of the new releases, and because it's nominated for an Oscar, lots of rabid pigs are marching on our theater to experience this movie. As ominous as the title, I shudder to see the auditorium after the 9:30 release. There might be an eruption of litter, possibly mixed with blood if I go postal tonight.
Because this is a movie about a selfish man, a man who wants others to lose as much as he wants to win, I'm sure it will attract that segment of our population that so frequently haunts our theater: selfish, intentionally evil pigs who get their jollies knowing that ushers are working themselves to death for $6.50 an hour cleaning up after them. As with the oil man and the evangelist, these movie fans will compete with one another to see who can wreak the most destruction. Some will swear that they always clean up behind themselves, but they're liars. Others will claim to not understand how unscrupulous movie goers can leave a mess and not be convicted by the Holy Spirit of their great sins. Only the ushers possess the honor and character to do what no one else is willing to do.
Some day an usher will be pushed beyond his endurance at the calloulessness of theater audiences, and there will be blood.
