A good movie, yes, but jeez, it's about <I>child abuse</I> and scary as hell. People like that should be written up by Child Protective Services or something. I know sitters are expensive, etc., but have a heart--the kids' welfare must come first.Alison Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01616978786997309940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12488399.post-1140395778881799132006-02-19T16:36:00.000-08:002006-02-19T16:36:00.000-08:00one time I went to see the midnight showing of the...one time I went to see the midnight showing of the Matrix and some 18 year old girl sits next to me with her 2 toddler children puts them in the seat next to me and then TAKES OFF and goes and sits in the back of the theater. I had to hold one of the kids hands through most of the movie because he was so scared! I thought the girl was trying to abandon her children but she did finally come pick them up after the movie was over. what a horrible experience.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12488399.post-1140197565944375742006-02-17T09:32:00.000-08:002006-02-17T09:32:00.000-08:00LOL!!

My. God. That's awful. Reminds me of the time ...Oh. My. God. That's awful. Reminds me of the time I went to see "Kissing Jessica Stein" in West Newton and the woman next to me was exclaiming in surprise at every turn of events. "Oh my GOD, they're KISSING! They're gay???" not in a homophobic way, but in a surprised way. It's like going to see "King Kong" and saying "Oh my God, look at that giant APE."
