noxcat and I went to see
Robin Hood this afternoon at The Alamo, a theatre the like of which I have never experienced! It's like a dinner theatre or sitting in the really good seats at a ball game. In the theatre about every other row of seats is removed, and tables are installed -- about 18" deep. Waiters come through, take your orders, and bring them to you in your seats.
It was really lovely -- and I like the pizza a lot.
Most everything that can be said about
Robin Hood has been said, and many of them are right, depending on the expectations of the viewer. I liked it a lot, actually, but then I'm really good at taking movies as stories within themselves, suspending disbelief regarding realities of history, clothing, etc. It was a good story in and of itself, history aside.
And the venue was excellent. I'll have to go again.
