I will say broadly, movie theaters are kind of like, I think Pauline Kael called them like her church.

And I think that's a little bit the way that I feel about movie theaters.

Yeah.

And there's one particular, I live in Minnesota, Minneapolis, and there's an old mid-century theater.

theater that uh used to be walking distance from my house and i would just go see anything that was playing there and always sit way way way back in the back row because i like to take it all in um by yourself by myself yeah it had i'd like going there with people but i you know if i had my druthers it was by myself and that just felt um like my place in the dark looking up at this big screen and

Feeling like a baby being held by somebody, you know?
