So why did the theater owner show that movie? Was he pressured by the studios?

Contracts I would assume. I'm not familiar with his business, or how it works. All I know is that he gets all the new movies at the same time as the big city theaters. I guess He's syndicated along with the rest of them. He has to follow the play-list I suppose.

jeltz25 Don't you think that by showing the movie in select, targeted High "gay" density area's that it would not skew the attendance numbers? Like others said, and I point out, It doesn't seem to do well in "normal" little redneck towns and cities. Even if there is a hidden gay population in them, they will wait for the rental. Better movies have suffered that fate.
