As I stated previously, my theater experience was that every seat was taken (except a woman who first told me that the seat was available but when I was either going to sit down myself or let my hubby take it, moved her bag onto it, stating that her "daughter was coming shortly" so it was taken - of course no one came later).

There was a mix of ages, many couples but men and women coming together without spouses. Age was mostly early forties to seventies as it was during the "twilight" hour when many younger folk are not into saving money at the movies. The crowd waiting to come in were more broad in age group.

As we filed out laughing and chatting with one another (former strangers but now fellow conservative friends) the others asked if we "enjoyed the movie."

The resounding answer was YES!!!

The part of town surrounding the theater is quite upper middle class and higher. One sees lots of Obama yard signs but I figure that these are the "guilty rich white folk (I am white but NOT guilty over the sin of slavery as 6 - 7 of my great grandfathers fought for the North to free slaves) who desire to be "patriotic by voting to tax people more" as the miserly Joe Biden states, though he himself has no charity within him - maybe no patriotism either.
