Yikes! I guess I gotta thank Heaven for small favors. But it's kind
of true, America is really huge and there are a great many really
ancient theaters that are in the innumerable small towns. But the
worst has to be seeing Harry at the $2.00 cinema. The screen is only
slightly larger than your living room wall and the quality of the
print never mind the sound is usually horrendous. What we suffer for
our love of Harry....
