I went to the movies once and the director was there and did a Q&A and my anxiety made me feel like we as a theatre didn’t clap enough. We don’t often have the director or any celebrities where I live, so nobody knew the protocol.
I went to see an early screening of documentary called Best Worst Movie about the making of Troll 2. The actor who played the dad was there and the crowd went NUTS when he walked out on stage with the director afterward. I even got a picture with him, it was great!
Yeah, that is definitely different and really cool!
I would go to way more of those if they happened near me!
We get Hallmark movies filmed where I live, so it is fun to try and recognize all the spots. One time it was my neighborhood coffee shop which was neat. I wish those directors would show the movies here and do Q&A, but they probably wouldn't appreciate me passing out my Hallmark movie bingo cards at the screening.
If a famous person requires a different protocol... they're not good enough to be respected as a normal person.
A position itself should NEVER be respected simply for being there unless you are a subordinate in the military. Even then, it is legal and encouraged to disobey direct orders that are illegal.
You don't need anxiety simply because there's a rich fuck in the room. Stop twisting yourself for others you don't even know.
It was an independent film that was quite good, and it was the director’s first feature length film. They were super nice and not snooty or anything.
It’s very uncommon for that kind of thing to happen where I live is all. I’ve never seen people clap at the movies otherwise (Rocky Horror doesn’t count!).
I interpreted their comment to mean the creators were present during the showing of their creation, which is unusual in that user's community. I don't think their anxiety is related to the person's fame or wealth, but I could be wrong.
