Since opening INSIDE DEEP THROAT last week, we have had some hilarious reactions from the movie-going public. From an elderly wife explaining for her husband, "He thinks it's about Watergate," to "What kind of place are you running?" from a patron in hushed tones, just before reserving a table...
From the whispering of the title as if it were, say it with me...cancer, to a really aged patron tapping his cane along to the soundtrack, to a couple playfully simulating oral sex in the back of the theater with beer bottles (ok, ewwww), our staff has seen it all...
But the reaction to the film is amazing. Not one person has walked out, a better batting average than TARNATION, playing down at the dMAC, which sources tell us has had a mass exodus at some screenings. Don't get me wrong. I was riveted by TARNATION, but apparently folks here in the Bible belt are finding it too disturbing or they are just experiencing a Blair Witch-like queasiness and are forced to evacuate (take that any way you like).
To avoid all the hoopla, we actually put INSIDE DEEP THROAT A Documentary on our marquees...and still we have managed to uncover the fact that maybe we haven't come such a long way in 30 years...
that is hysterical! Good work programming it, y'all picked a winner.
Great movie! I learned quite a bit that I didn't know about the events surrounding DEEP THROAT.
