bike trail in Wisconsin in 1972. I can’t remember if it was in Elroy or Sparta, but I do remember the price of admission (at night) was $1.00. That was cheap, even in those days.

The theater didn't vibrate with the gunshots and explosions (LOL), but the movie looked great. And as usually the case, I noticed a few things on the big screen that I don't usually pay attention to (like Al Martino walking in back of Marlon Brando during the wedding scene a few minutes before he sings). The theater was practically empty. It's only playing two more days here. The film was preceded by an intro by Francis Ford Coppola. Hadn't seen him recently. He has really aged.
