I think he does. I think we got to know him in Training Day and in Philadelphia.

Well worth seeing. We went at 12:15 yesterday. It was sold out in a big theater and the audience applauded long and loud at the end.

Are you serious? Is this a thing that happens in theaters? I have only been to a theater once and that was like 10 years ago so I can't imagine everyone there applauding. It just seems like something you would see 4 decades ago not in our generation.

Happens all the time. At least here in L.A. At the end of Notes on a Scandal, which I saw at the Arclight in Hollywood, someone shouted out "Bravo!" and there was sustained applause.

In L.A., people practically give the popcorn advertisements standing O's. We're very expressive if we like a movie. Maybe because there are so many people you bump into in the industry, and even people not in it talk and think about movies all the time. I think the culture as a whole just identifies with the industry somehow.

You absolutely cannot understand the movie experience until you see a movie in Los Angeles. It may be because %75 of the audience did background work at one point. Standing O for a popcorn commercial: LOL.
