A Letter to the Only Movie Theater Owner in Kirksville
June 28th, 2004 Chris Posted in Uncategorized |
I’m writing to urge you to bring the film ‘Fahrenheit 911′ to your theater. Despite opening in just 868 theaters nationwide (three times less than other top-ten movies), it grossed 21.8 million dollars, earning it the number one spot in the nation. That means that it earned over $25,000 per theater this weekend, as opposed to just over $7,000 for the number two movie, ‘White Chicks’.
By not showing a film this popular, you stand to lose quite a bit of revenue. I hope you’ll consider this, and bring the film soon. And if not, well then I suppose I’ll just have to drive to Columbia and give my money to someone else.

Chris, I went and saw the movie and thought it was great. It was really hard, though too. I’ll go to columbia with you sometime. I’ve got some people I want to drag to see the movie, and I figured columbia was a good place to do it. I won’t be able to do it this weekend (because of the 4th), but any other time, we should get together a group of people and go.
