why are you whispering?

Once in awhile, hubby and I sneak away to catch a matinee, which we did this week. Movie choice: Soul Surfer - the true story of Bethany Hamilton, the 13-year-old in Hawaii who lost an arm to a hungry shark. Love, loved it. Take your spouse, kids or just yourself and go see it!

Well obviously, matinee showings aren't filled ... so when we were the first to take our seats ten minutes early, we figured only a few more would trickle in.

Trailers start. No one.
Concession ads. Still no one else.
The movie begins and Bill whispers, "we might really be the only ones here!"
"Why are you whispering?" I whisper back.

So no other mid-week, mid-day movie-goers ever came. There we sat, with our choice of 300 seats, all alone with a huge tub of popcorn. Weird but fun.

Go see Soul Surfer!

Thank you for the movie review :o)

It's weird to have the theater all alone!
