The Big Screen

This past Sunday I had the glorious opportunity to see Back to the Future at the ArcLight's Cinerama Dome. Fellow spectators jostled me as we all flooded into the theater, and everyone let out a resounding cheer when Michael J. Fox hopped on his skateboard. I felt camaraderie with people I never knew as we enjoyed the same movie, popping kernels in our mouths and chuckling in unison. In this age of streaming movies digitally onto computer screens (or even phones) and dwarfing the scope of cinema, there's something to be said about seeing films in their intended form.
