At the multiplex in Roanoke.
Waiting for the feature presentation to begin, an action-packed trailer pops up for a movie called KIDNAP. We see Halle Berry as a mother-warrior fighting what looks to be an army of humanity (criminals, bystanders, doubters, cops, liars, thieves, truckers, lovers...) getting in the way of this mother's fevered pursuit of her adorable innocent bespectacled little boy who has suddenly inexplicably been stolen from her at an amusement park.
As the title KIDNAP splashes its intention across the screen, I hear this from a guy in the row behind me:
Oh dear. That is so NOT the right role for her to come back in.
Now, if this were Chelsea and he were a gay man, I wouldn't be surprised. But I'm in Roanoke and he appears to be on a date with a woman.
When did the entire country turn into Rex Reed?
Discuss.
