lagilmanApparently, they're running previews of this movie in theaters, without any warning, attached to major films.
I have no objection to the movie itself being made; it's history, it's fair game. I have no objection to them advertising it -- you have to market the damn thing, after all. Business is business.
I do object to being subjected to it, without warning, without the opportunity to leave, or otherwise prepare myself. Especially here in NYC.
(some chains have pulled the preview, in response to consumer complaints)
Will I go see this movie? No. Not now, anyway. Just seeing the preview was enough to scrape at the scar tissue; I have no desire at all to pull the damn thing off. I know my limits. But I am interested in reading the reviews, to see if they managed to walk the delicate line between resepct and drama...
