What's really unusual is that anyone that's been to Sundance knows that these theatres are packed for the two weeks, for the time that the festival is on.
It's really hard to get a ticket.
There are often lines outside of screening rooms, you know, well before Sundance.
And they do it on purpose.
They really want to put them in small theatres so they can say they've got a lot of buzz and they had to turn people away.
And the movie companies go and watch these and they see people and the lines around the block and they buy them.
So this is interesting.
The fact it's at Sundance tells me they've not sold it to Netflix or else they wouldn't have taken it to Sundance.
Great point.
So they're looking for a distributor from this.
But get this, you'll love this.
It's an exclusive that I have today just for you.
People who have seen the movie...
tell me that once again, Harry and Meghan have stepped in it because now they've really upset the Girl Guide Foundation organization because this movie is pretty negative.
What I did not know, but the movie points out, is that moms and dads have to buy all these cookies up front.
Scandal!
So they have to pay this money up front.
And in the movie, it's quite controversial that a lot of these Girl Scouts, now their parents are buying lots and lots of cookies and then selling them on the internet.
They're not going door to door.
That whole cookie business has changed.
