I finally got to see Dreamgirls last night. -Great- movie. Yet, something happened that's rarely (if ever) occurred whenever I've attended a movie.

People were giving standing ovations to the film.

Check that, they were giving standing ovations each time Jennifer Hudson sang.

-I- was tempted to do the same thing more than once. Her voice has become incredible. She sells these songs completely.

Yes, people cheered at many points in the film.

Not standing, though.

*Whew*, yeah I could understand cheering, but the standing rather surprised me. [Smile]

There were some people in the back of the theater that gave a standing ovation at the end of the new Rocky movie.

You were probably in a theater with my cousin. He worships the Rocky movies, acts out the mannerisms, and dreams of being the guy who works as the Rocky impersonator on the museum steps.

The first time I visited a cinema in London, back in the day, I was surprised to see the audience give a standing ovation -- with calls of "Encore!" -- to Dick Tracy.
