Watching Movies in (500) Days

This scene reflects a shift in audience and programming that has occurred in Million Dollar Theatre since the 1970s and 80s. Once a well-known venue for Mexican film and performance, now occasionally shows films that appeal to an art house audience. While Tom watches a montage of art house genre conventions, he and Summer watch a more raucous horror/ action film. Depictions of both screenings demonstrates a proclivity for older film viewing practices.
