Driving Lessons did appear at the local independent film theater in Minneapolis (MN), I think I saw it twice in the same day. However, with gas prices are they are, a trip to the movies for one tends to run $50 or more, and that's a pretty expensive movie. 

When December Boys was being released, I weighed spending $50 or more to see it in the theater, though it never did show that I know of, or spending $20 on the DVD. The DVD won out.

I would LIKE to see Cherrybomb, but I doubt that it will ever play here. And given that I no longer drive by the theater everyday, if it did show, it is unlikely I would be aware of it. So, now once again, I weigh getting the DVD. 

Now living in a small town, even Academy Award nominated movie don't play here. If it isn't generic Hollywood blockbuster fair, it doesn't see the light of day out here on the great frozen tundra.
