Not everyone notices
|
As things drift slowly in and out of focus.
|
Being in the theatre is more important than knowing what is going on in the movie.
|
The sound in the theatre is very loud.
|
It builds up beacause it can't get out of the theatre.
|
The actors talk.
|
We can still hear what they said a minute ago.
|
This happens in any closed room - sound never leaves it.
|
If someone goes out to get some soda or popcorn.
|
Some conversations escape as they leave and enter the lobby.
|
When the movie's over.
|
And everyone leaves the theatre.
|
The accumulated sound leaves with them
|
And spreads out across the parking lot
|
To become forever part of the landscape
|
The film is a gift to the surrounding community.
