Back in '86 I saw JdF at the old Coral Gables Fine Arts Theatre. The screen was large and *even better* they served microbrew on tap! An unforgettable experience, especially as I had just consumed an excellent Cuban meal.

When Manon came out I saw it at the old Nickelodeon in Boston, again a big screen but *no beer*. After it was over I led the applause and most of the audience joined in -- love it when that happens. I turned to the guy next to me and remarked, "Now that was a movie!" He replied, "Ah, oui monsieur, oui monsieur!"
