I saw it this evening too. I really liked it. Even the foul language didn’t bother me since it had a place in the plot. It wasn’t gratuitous. The audience applauded at the end as well. I hope it gets many Oscars.

I did have to tell the idiot teenagers next to me to put their phones away. Sheesh. If something’s so important that you have to answer the phone/send a text during a movie, then maybe you shouldn’t be in the movie in the first place.

Compared to some of the movies out there, it's a real gem.

I didn't see any teenagers in the theater we went to. Kids probably don't want to go to the historic-type theaters. Too boring for them without mobs of other kids...

I got a chuckle out of watching the lady next to me as she was texting prior to the movie. She had to be more than 20 years older than I am—in her 60s. I only text my oldest son, and we only text to find out if he has baseball practice or some other reason to stay after school. And yet this senior citizen was busy texting at a movie theater. She’s more of a techie than I am.
