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....
