Good Night, Good Luck, Good Day, Good Life

We're selling out nearly every show of Clooney's Good Night, and Good Luck. It's an incredibly beautifully constructed film and it feels like it moves at the pace of 1953. Which is not a bad thing, but a fitting thing.

I think every screening has ended in applause so far, which I find more comforting than the applause after "Fahrenheit 9/11". It's a very solid film and our sell-out is all the greater considering that it is a fantastically beautiful day outside. I love fall days like this. I'm inside all day herding people in and out of the theater, but I'll take it. And many more.

I am reminded of Lake Wobegon in Minnesota on days like this. Sure, it's a fictional town, but Keillor ends many of his narrations about the town with a good thought for a good day like this one: "Thank you, dear God, for this good life and forgive us if we do not love it enough."
